Amy Butt is an architect and a Lecturer in Architecture at the University of Reading with a specialization in architectural representation and communication. She is one of the co-founders of the architectural collective Involve, and is currently undertaking a PhD by publication at Westminster University. www.amyvictoriabutt.com<\/a><\/span><\/p>

Amy\u2019s research explores the way the fictional worlds we construct influence and reflect the world we inhabit, writing about utopian thought and the imaginary in architecture through science fiction literature and film. Notable publications include: \u2018\u2018Endless forms, vistas and hues\u2019: Why Architects Should Read Science Fiction\u2019 in ARQ and \u2018\u2018The Present as Past: Science Fiction and the Museum\u2019,\u00a0in Open Library of the Humanities.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

I am a PhD candidate in the School of Life Sciences at the University of Westminster.\u00a0 With my background in software development (BTech) and technology management (MBA), and with almost 20 years of experience in the software industry, I have developed a passion in building technology solutions that support productivity improvements in individuals and organisations.<\/p>

Furthermore, my studies in sports and exercise nutrition (MSc) have deepened my interest to develop lifestyle solutions that help individuals in improving their diet and physical activity.\u00a0 The lack of digital health research involving women, specifically midlife women, has led me to focus on the needs of this population.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>

The aim of my PhD project is to therefore evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a co-produced digital health lifestyle intervention to promote health-enhancing behaviours in midlife women.\u00a0 My research interest is in developing and supporting evidence-based digital-health tools using mHealth technology and behaviour change techniques.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
