About
Dr. Ashley Ahuja is a leading researcher at the intersection of gerontechnology and cognitive health, whose work is redefining how we support aging populations. Her primary focus lies in evaluating technology-enabled interventions—from digital platforms to adaptive devices—that enhance recreational and leisure opportunities for older adults, especially those living with cognitive impairment. Dr. Ahuja’s landmark rapid scoping review, “Technology-Enabled Recreation and Leisure Programs and Activities for Older Adults With Cognitive Impairment” (2024, 8 citations), provides a critical synthesis of current evidence, revealing how limited mobility and cognitive decline often restrict access to meaningful activities. This foundational work not only maps the landscape of available digital solutions but also identifies crucial gaps in accessibility and design, setting a clear agenda for future innovation. By championing the integration of user-centered technology into daily life, Dr. Ahuja is helping to ensure that cognitive challenges do not preclude older adults from experiencing the physical, cognitive, and mental health benefits of recreation. Her research is a vital resource for clinicians, developers, and policymakers striving to build more inclusive, supportive environments for an aging society.
