Ben King

Instructor for senior-level industrial and product design studios focused on human-centred design, ethics, and research-driven product development.
Founded and lead a Design for Health course, connecting design, engineering, and medicine with clinical partners and patient access.

Partnered with healthcare and research organizations to lead patient experience driven communication, product development and brand strategy in environments traditionally driven by clinical and scientific research.

Led product design for Mobili-T and Breth, digital health products transforming rehabilitation therapy into personalized, data-driven experiences. Mobili-T was adopted by 50+ leading health organizations.

• Directed product discovery through design sprints, user research, competitor analysis and usability testing.

• Conceptualized and prototyped
product experiences from concept through production, integrating hardware, software, and behavioral design.

• Partnered with clinicians, engineers, and researchers to translate therapy protocols into intuitive digital experiences.

Design lead within a multidisciplinary research team that translated clinical research into Mobili-T - a mobile therapy technology designed to support and analyze rehabilitation for head and neck cancer. Worked across clinical, research, and design disciplines to identify patient needs and prototype and test practical, innovative interventions.

Founded a design consultancy focused on medical product design and storytelling to translate complex health innovations into clear product concepts and compelling narratives.

Design Lead in the Medical Modeling Research Laboratory, supporting surgical planning and simulation through advanced 3D modeling and design. Collaborated with surgeons, researchers, and engineers to translate complex anatomical data into accurate digital and physical models used in surgical design, surgical planning and patient education. Helped expand the institute’s capabilities in 3D modeling for clinical research and surgical simulation by creating training courses that were taught internationally.
