Speaker

Alex Glazebrook (VP of Program Operations at OATS – Older Adults Technology Services, from AARP)

Abstract

Our society is aging alongside a rapid increase in the evolution and advancement of technology that mediates daily life. The use and adoption of technology by older adults has increased in the recent past, but differences remain with their younger counterparts and the effects of digital disconnection in later life are more acute. This session will present recent technology adoption and use trends among older adults as well as accompanying solutions that can aid in the adoption of technology by older adults, including future directions and expected developments.

Bio

As VP of Programs, Alex Glazebrook is responsible for ensuring an outstanding experience for the older adults who participate in the many training and support programs that OATS offers. Alex earned a BA, MSW, and PhD from Stony Brook University, specializing in healthcare, with a focus on aging, investigating the many ways in which technology influences  health outcomes for older adults.
