Scentsory design for fashion and lifestyle

As a Visiting Scholar in the Department of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology at the University of Cambridge where I have held my post since October 2009, I was invited to present at the University of Cambridge Alumni Weekend in 2010, by my supervisor, Professor Chris Lowe, Director of the Institute of Biotechnology.

Abstract:

Department of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology: Scentsory Design for Fashion & Lifestyle.

The talk describes Visiting Scholar Dr Jenny Tillotson’s Scentsory Design® research at Central Saint Martins College of Art & Design, which exists at the crossover of three main disciplines; the developing knowledge and utilisation of nanotechnology and miniaturisation (MEMS / micro-electro-mechanical-systems), the science of smell and how it affects the human brain, and wearable technologies/sensor networks for therapeutic applications in ‘emotional clothing’.
