Biography

Professor Sarah Sharples is a Professor of Human Factors in the Department of Mechanical, Materials and Manufacturing Engineering and Chief Scientific Adviser for the Department for Transport. She was Pro-Vice Chancellor for Equality, Diversity and Inclusion and people at the ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´ from 2018-2021. She completed her PhD in 1999 and has been a researcher, research manager or grant holder on a number of industrial, government and EU funded projects, including a long term programme of research for Network Rail examining implications, design and implementation of novel interfaces for railway control and use of rail simulation for human factors research. She was as a council member for the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council from 2018-2021 and Non-Executive Director for the Transport Systems/Connected Places Catapult from 2016-2021. She works in the domains of transport, healthcare and manufacturing, and is a Chartered Ergonomist and Human Factors Specialist. Her main areas of interest and expertise are Human-Computer Interaction, cognitive ergonomics and development of quantitative and qualitative research methodologies for examination of interaction with innovative technologies in complex systems. She was President of the Chartered Institute of Ergonomics and Human Factors from 2015-2016, and co-editor of the leading ergonomics/human factors text, Evaluation of Human Work, 4th edition (2015).

Professor Sharples is a member of the Human Factors Research Group.
