Dr Lennon’s research seeks to apply engineering science to a variety of applications at the interface of physical and medical sciences, including surgical planning, medical devices, biomaterials, and regenerative medicine.

Specific research topics undertaken with colleagues in the Bioengineering Research Group, Health Sciences, Musgrave Park Hospital, and international collaborators include orthopaedic and cardiovascular biomechanics, mechanics of cells and tissues, and combining physical and computational testing to characterise short and long term performance of biomaterials and medical devices.
