The objective of the Aging in Place Research Cluster is to support the needs and choice of older women and men to age in place through high quality, inter-disciplinary research for the development of in-home supportive technologies aimed at maintaining active living, functional independence and social/emotional health.

To compliment quantitative data collected from monitoring devices and questionnaires our study approaches, outcomes and assistive technologies will be considered in consultation with end users.  Diverse participants will be engaged and recruited from our volunteer participants and community partners to ensure our approaches are inclusive of the heterogenous and often marginalized groups of older adults.

Persons consulted will include not only healthy older adults, but also those with chronic disease and mobility challenges who choose to age in place.
