Dr Zohre Abedi is a Research Fellow at the Centre for Human Factors and Systems Science at the University of the Sunshine Coast (UniSC). She is a Human Factors and Ergonomics researcher and Certified Professional Ergonomist (CPE), with expertise in applying systems thinking and human-centred approaches to improve the safety, design and implementation of complex technologies in healthcare and transport.

Zohre completed her PhD at the University of Queensland, where she investigated the factors influencing return to work following road traffic injuries. Her research focuses on integrating Human Factors and Ergonomics knowledge, principles and methods across the lifecycle of emerging technologies, from development through to decommissioning, to support their ethical, safe, efficient and effective implementation. Her current work includes human factors integration in AI-enabled technologies across healthcare and transport, including AI-enabled clinical decision support systems and AI-based driver behaviour monitoring systems. She works closely with researchers, industry, government and healthcare organisations to develop practical, evidence-based frameworks and tools that improve safety, system performance and the implementation of emerging technologies.
