About
Prue Matthews is a pioneering researcher in digital health, with a particular focus on artificial intelligence (AI) applications for patient monitoring and infectious disease management. Her most notable contribution is the development of "Curious thing," an AI-based conversational agent designed for COVID-19 patient management during the pandemic. This innovative tool addressed a critical gap in healthcare—the lack of validated models for monitoring isolated COVID-19 patients in the community to detect early health deterioration. By creating a system that could interact with patients and flag warning signs, Matthews’ work directly improved remote care capabilities during a global health crisis. Her 2023 paper on this topic has garnered 9 citations, reflecting its timely relevance. Matthews’ research sits at the intersection of AI, public health, and human-computer interaction, demonstrating how conversational agents can be deployed for real-world clinical challenges. Her work has laid important groundwork for future AI-driven remote monitoring systems, making her a key voice in the evolving field of digital health innovation.
