About
Gabriel Aguiar Noury investigates the intersection of robotics, healthcare, and aging, focusing on how socially assistive robots can support people with dementia and mild cognitive impairments. Their work identifies critical barriers to health innovation—such as regulatory, financial, and cultural hurdles—and proposes user-centered solutions to accelerate the adoption of robotic and autonomous systems in care settings. Notably, their 2021 paper on the assistive robotics market (25 citations) reveals why healthcare lags behind other industries in automation, while their 2021 study on the robot Stevie (12 citations) demonstrates its acceptability in adult day centers for dementia, emphasizing cognitive stimulation and wellbeing. Noury also led participatory workshops across Cornwall (2019, 10 citations) to capture real-world challenges and desiderata from care professionals and service users, directly informing policy and research priorities. Their 2020 protocol paper addresses a critical gap in reproducibility for human-robot interaction studies with seniors. By bridging technical development with stakeholder needs, Noury’s research paves the way for ethical, effective assistive robotics that enhance quality of life for aging populations.
