About Gyles
Gyles’ Story
From medicine to Clinical UX.
Dr Gyles Morrison
MBBS · MSc Human–Computer Interaction with Ergonomics
Clinical UX StrategistBiography
After a career as a medical doctor, Gyles moved into digital health and began using his clinical background to improve healthcare technology at Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust in London, England.
In 2015, he coined the term Clinical UX to describe his focus on how clinicians and patients experience healthcare technology and services. His experience spans UX research, UX design, UI design, UX strategy and UX leadership.
Gyles later completed an MSc in Human–Computer Interaction with Ergonomics at University College London. Having worked on projects internationally, he specialises in clinical risk reduction, healthcare behaviour change and health equity. His work includes digital therapeutics and AI-enabled digital technologies.
Areas of work
Connecting disciplines that healthcare needs.
Approach to innovation
Technology-positive. People-centred. Evidence-led.
Gyles regards AI as an increasingly useful tool that can extend what healthcare teams achieve. But the ability to build something quickly does not establish that it should be built. His approach is to question the problem, anticipate clinical and human consequences, consider oversight and evidence, and choose the technology and working methods best suited to the people involved.
Professional development
Supporting the wider Clinical UX community.
Alongside consulting, Gyles founded the Clinical UX Association and contributes through teaching, mentoring, speaking and writing. Its learning and membership activities are distinct from bespoke consulting work commissioned directly through Dr Gyles Morrison Consulting.
