  <body><![CDATA[<p>Maureen Linden<strong><em> </em></strong>is a Research Engineer
II at the Georgia Institute of Technology’s Center for Assistive Technology and
Environmental Access (CATEA).&nbsp; She holds
an Master of Science in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Virginia.&nbsp; Her professional experience has centered on
rehabilitation and assistive technologies, providing direct services to
individuals with disabilities, as well as advancing knowledge through
research.&nbsp; Currently, Ms. Linden is an
investigator on the Rehabilitation Engineering Research Center (RERC) on
Workplace Accommodations funded by NIDRR, where her research engages
individuals with disabilities in participatory action research that identifies continued technical and policy barriers to employment.&nbsp; </p>
