Dr Kieran Green has an interdisciplinary interest spanning health, ageing, technology-enabled care, and AI to the geographies of housing and homelessness. While wide-spanning, the key throughline in his work is a passion for improving public services for the vulnerable and seeking pragmatic and innovative solutions.

His 2024 PhD in Human Geography focused on the under-researched area of Youth Sofa Surfing. The study outlines how, in the face of a housing crisis, relationships with sofa-surfing hosts and their guests could be strengthened, and young people's visions of the future could be improved to provide a bridge to a more stable and hopeful future. From 2022-2024, Kieran worked as a researcher-in-residence at Torbay Hospital to "Building a Brighter Future" (BBF). During the BBF project, he modelled potential bed-day saved in orthopaedics and frailty from emergent technologies such as Virtual Wards, Wearables, Remote Monitoring, Early Intervention, and AI; explored the revolutionary potential of generative AI in support of the frailty-focused person-centred care initiative "What Matter To You"; outlined methods of improving their SDEC model, and how to improve the technology-enabled care implementation acute settings based on perception of local orthopaedic and frailty practitioners.
