Welcome to The Health Aging and Technology Lab
Designing technology that is useful and accessible as people age

We are experts in technology and user-centered design, and we know that older adults, especially people with cognitive challenges, want technology relevant to their needs – technology for enjoying life, staying independent, and connecting with others.

Through carefully listening to users, the THAT lab team identifies ways to make technology that works better for older adults.

  • It may be as creative as changing the voice of your voice assistant (e.g., Alexa)
