Biography

Rhys Mantell is a Research Assistant in the School of Population Health at the University of New South Wales. He has a Master of Public Health and a Bachelor of Economics. His doctoral research was focused on the NHMRC-funded ASCAPE project, which evaluated digital health tools, particularly game-based cognitive assessments, for older people in prison. Rhys' current work explores innovative digital technologies to improve cognitive screening and health outcomes for older adults involved in the justice system, with an emphasis on trauma-informed and culturally appropriate design. He has led or contributed to various large-scale national evaluations within the ageing, mental health, and justice health sectors, demonstrating a commitment to applied interdisciplinary research. Rhys' research interests include designing digital health tools, critical realism, and participatory approaches for complex qualitative methodologies. He has received several grants including the RM Gibson Grant for extending the ASCAPE project and investigating emotional healing for older Australians post-incarceration. Rhys has also been involved in the ReINVEST trial, evaluating pharmacological interventions for men with histories of violence.
