      Hi Curiousgeorge

      In the future my research is going to help to develop more effective physical activity apps for those who currently do not do enough or any activity. It is also going to help develop a set of government recommendations on how we ustilise technology in health interventions as wells make people more active and reduce their chances of getting diseases like type 2 diabetes and heart disease. This is important for health but aslo important for the NHS as the less people with these conditions the less money they will spend and can use it for treating other illnesses and keeping people in their jobs.
