Biography

Dr. John M. Templeton completed his Ph.D. under Professor Christian Poellabauer from the University of Notre Dame in 2022. His principal research and expertise lie in the cross‑sectional area of computer science and engineering focused on smart health systems, human factored design, IoT, mobile computing, and machine learning applications in healthcare. His doctoral and postdoctoral research has resulted in the design and development of neurocognitive digital health systems for neurodegenerative diseases via crowdsensing, mobile sensing, and streaming data analytics for the evaluation of digital features in disease classification, staging, and symptom-specific intervention protocols. Given his education and current research, he aims to expand his human-factored health research into new areas, including: mTBI, cancer research, diabetes, heart disease, cystic fibrosis, and pharmacological / interventional effects across conditions via (a) the development of new assessment tools that maximize data quality (e.g., minimize human error, maximize compliance, while creating tools appropriate for all independent of age, gender, cognitive skill, etc.), and (b) the fusion of diverse sensor sources through machine learning techniques, while also (c) addressing bias in current health technologies (e.g., how we collect and analyze data and build models)
