About
Mi Jung Lee is a pioneering researcher in the field of occupational therapy and telehealth, with a focused expertise in remote home-safety evaluations using emerging technologies. Her major contributions center on comparing and validating two state-of-the-art approaches—store-and-forward videos and telepresence robots—for guiding occupational therapists in conducting effective home-safety assessments from a distance. In her 2020 feasibility study on telepresence robots, Lee demonstrated how these mobile, interactive devices can enable clinicians to virtually navigate a patient’s living environment, identifying fall risks and accessibility issues with high fidelity. Her 2019 comparative work further clarified when each technology is most appropriate, particularly highlighting the role of caregiver adherence in successful implementation. While her citation counts (7 and 2, respectively) reflect the nascent stage of this research area, Lee’s work is foundational for a rapidly growing field, especially as telehealth expands post-pandemic. Her studies are notable for their practical, real-world focus—directly informing how clinicians can leverage technology to improve patient safety and independence at home.
