About

Marta Gabbi is a researcher dedicated to harnessing immersive technologies for the benefit of an aging population. Her work sits at the intersection of human-computer interaction, gerontechnology, and mixed reality, with a primary focus on designing applications that promote active and lively ageing. Gabbi’s major contribution lies in her pioneering exploration of how mixed reality—blending virtual and physical environments—can be tailored to support the physical, cognitive, and social well-being of older adults. Her most-cited paper, "Towards Mixed Reality Applications to Support Active and Lively Ageing" (2024), lays the groundwork for this emerging field, proposing frameworks that prioritize user engagement and accessibility. While still early in her career, with this work accumulating 2 citations, Gabbi’s research signals a critical shift toward inclusive, technology-driven solutions for longevity. Her achievements include bridging the gap between cutting-edge mixed reality development and real-world geriatric needs, offering a blueprint for future interventions that empower seniors to lead more vibrant, independent lives. Gabbi’s work is essential reading for students and researchers interested in the human-centered design of digital tools for ageing populations.
