Cognitive Workload & Human Performance
We investigate how mental workload affects performance in demanding environments such as emergency response, healthcare, and aviation. This includes the use of tools like NASA-TLX, experimental studies, and real-world data collection to assess cognitive load and optimize human performance.
Human-Centered System Design
Our work focuses on designing systems that prioritize human needs, capabilities, and limitations. We aim to improve usability, efficiency, and resilience by integrating human-centered principles into engineering and organizational systems.

Decision-Making Under Pressure
We study how individuals make decisions in time-critical and high-risk situations. This includes analyzing factors such as stress, multitasking, uncertainty, and information overload to better support effective decision-making.
Ergonomics & Human Factors Engineering
The lab examines physical and cognitive ergonomics in various settings, aiming to reduce errors, enhance safety, and improve overall system performance through better design.
Applied Research in Real-World Contexts
We collaborate with organizations to address practical challenges, particularly within the Kuwaiti context. Our projects bridge academic research with real-world applications, ensuring relevance and impact.
Design Thinking & Innovation
We incorporate design thinking methodologies to develop creative, user-centered solutions. This includes iterative prototyping, problem framing, and interdisciplinary collaboration.
