James Fenwick

James Fenwick serves as a Research Fellow and Serious Games Lead at CENTRIC with a BSc in Games Design and over a decade of research experience translating theoretical frameworks into applied design solutions. His work spans multiple UK and EU-funded initiatives focused on virtual reality and game-based experiential learning systems.

His primary research domains include Virtual Reality, Serious Games, and Cybersecurity applications, with specific projects addressing command and control systems, cryptocurrency tracing, decryption training, and data visualization. This work demonstrates a consistent emphasis on developing immersive educational tools for high-stakes technical domains.

Recent publications reveal a strategic pivot toward applying VR technology in cybersecurity education for non-specialist audiences, particularly parents and educators. His 2024 iLRN Proceedings paper exemplifies this trend through practical implementations of virtual environments for cyber prevention training.

No scientific awards or grant details are specified in the source material, though his leadership role in multinational funded projects indicates significant research contributions. As Serious Games Lead, he directs CENTRIC's specialized team developing game-based learning frameworks for complex technical training scenarios.
