About
Dr. Jane Potter is a leading researcher at the intersection of geriatric care and robotics, with a primary focus on enhancing the quality of life for older adults through innovative technology. Her most impactful work centers on the development of telepresence robotic systems designed to bridge the gap between nursing home residents and healthcare providers, a need dramatically underscored by the COVID-19 pandemic. Her seminal paper, "A Robotic Device to Enhance Nursing Home Provider Telepresence During and After the COVID-19 Pandemic" (2021, 13 citations), outlines a groundbreaking approach to maintaining critical human connection and medical oversight when physical presence is limited. This work demonstrates her ability to rapidly translate engineering solutions into practical, compassionate care tools. Dr. Potter’s contributions are vital in an era of aging populations and infectious disease challenges, showing how robotics can preserve dignity and safety in long-term care settings. Her research not only addresses immediate crises but also lays the groundwork for a future where technology seamlessly supports the well-being of our most vulnerable citizens.
