Health of Older Adult Women and Caregivers
What Can Wearable Technology Tell Us About Older Women’s Health?
Thank you for your interest in our study. We are no longer recruiting participants.
About our study:
We're investigating how wearable devices can help monitor the health of older adult women (age 65 and older). We plan to recruit 2 groups, both informal caregivers and non-caregivers. The informal caregivers are women who provide informal (unpaid) care for family members with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias.
By conducting this research, we hope to understand how wearable data can measure the health of caregivers and non-caregiver older adult women. We plan to use this information to create better ways to monitor and support the health of older adult women.
Shivangi Bajpai, a recent graduate from in the EpiTech Activity Lab, received a fellowship from the American Association of University Women (AAUW) to support this project. AAUW is a non-profit organization that works to advance equality and empower women and girls through advocacy, education, and research.
