About

Angela Yee Man Leung is a researcher whose work sits at the intersection of gerontology, technology-assisted care, and aging-in-place innovations. Her scholarship focuses on understanding how emerging technologies — particularly social robotics — can be meaningfully integrated into the lives of community-dwelling older adults to support independent living and home-based care delivery. Her most notable recent contribution examines the acceptability and utility of social robots among older adults across multiple dimensions, including affective attitude, perceived burden, and effectiveness — a multifaceted framework that reflects her commitment to centering the lived experiences of aging populations in technology adoption research. This work addresses a critically underexplored question: not merely whether robots *can* deliver care, but whether older adults themselves find such care acceptable and valuable. Though her citation record is still developing — with her most recent work accumulating 4 citations since its 2025 publication — Leung's research speaks to one of the most pressing challenges in contemporary healthcare: how to sustainably support rapidly growing aging populations through innovative, human-centered solutions. Her scholarship offers valuable guidance for clinicians, policymakers, and designers shaping the future of aged care.
