Dr David Peake BSc. (Hons) PhD.
Passionate about Health Equity
Pneumonia is the largest infectous killer of children world-wide, killing over 880,000 children under 5 each year. The burden of pneumonia is disproportionality heavy in low-to-middle income countries.
Oxygen is a life-saving treatment for pneumonia.
Co-founding FREO2 Foundation Australia in 2016, I am driven by the belief that Every health facility that cares for in-patients must have oxygen.
Many solutions that work in high-resource environments are just not appropriate in these areas due to logistics, cost and electricity availability. FREO2 creates novel, appropriate technologies to increase oxygen access to those that need it the most.
Expert in Data Acquisition and Analysis
Since completing my PhD in Accelerator Physics in 2012, I have used my experience in experimental design to solve problems in industry and research settings. From small accelerometer loggers measuring glass vibrations to electronics correcting detector non-linearities in a GMP facility, I have supplied industry with high-tech, rapidly deployed solutions.
As part of my work with FREO2, I have designed many bespoke data acquisition systems. These have been constructed to provide real-time data access proving our innovations in-situ.
