Keir Jamieson is an Impact Assistant at the University of Strathclyde, within the Pharmaceutical Waste project. Having recently graduated with a MEng Product Design Engineering from DMEM, his time within Design HOPES has been developing CLEAR (Collaborative Learning for Effective & Appropriate Review) Medicines Tool.

This tool, is a tactile communication tool which supports patients and healthcare professionals to have clearer, more collaborative conversations about their treatment options during a medication review.

With a focus on placing human values at the centre of this tool, Keir has created various iterative tactile prototypes, which will provide opportunities to identify and reduce unnecessary medications in polypharmacy patients.
