Dr Jac Fennell

Ar hyn o bryd mae Jac yn Gymrawd Ymchwil ar y prosiect 'EMPOWERED' a ariennir gan Lywodraeth Cymru, gan werthuso gwrthrych chwareus i bobl sy'n byw gyda dementia a nam gwybyddol ar ôl strôc. Ar hyn o bryd mae'r rhain yn cael eu profi mewn cartref gofal preifat a'r GIG i fesur yr effaith ar les. Cyn hynny, bu’n Gynorthwyydd Ymchwil ar brosiect ymchwil LAUGH (Ludic Artefacts Using Gesture and Haptics) a ariannwyd gan AHRC, gan ddatblygu dyfeisiau chwareus arloesol i gefnogi pobl â dementia cam hwyr. Roedd y prosiect yn gydweithrediad rhyngwladol gydag ymchwilwyr yn CARIAD (Prifysgol Fetropolitan Caerdydd), Prifysgol Technoleg Sydney a Phrifysgol Coventry. Partnerwyd yr ymchwil gan Gwalia Cyf a'i gefnogi gan yr elusennau blaenllaw yn y maes: Age Cymru, Cymdeithas Alzheimer a Dementia Positive.  

Mae'r prosiectau ymchwil yn adeiladu ar ymchwil lles sy'n dangos bod pobl hapus yn byw yn hirach, yn cael llai o gwympiadau ac angen llai o feddyginiaeth. Mae'n cynnig dulliau di-ffarmacolegol i wella lles pobl â dementia a'u gofal. Mae'r atebion dylunio arloesol yn ymgorffori electroneg wedi'i fewnosod a deunydd craff.
