New Research Cluster at UBCO to Support Aging in Place
The Aging In Place Research Cluster was awarded funding by the Office of the Vise-Principal Research and Innovation in December 2020 to advance research and innovation in technologies and interventions that will allow older adults to maintain their independence as they age. The cluster has been busy behind the scenes for the last several months hiring new staff, developing a web presence, and putting forth various grant applications. As summer research season kicks off so too do new projects and opportunities for the many trainees affiliated with the Aging In Place Cluster. Sign up for our quarterly email newsletter below to receive updates on research and community outreach as well as calls for participants in a wide range of research studies.
