About

Jiaying Liu is an emerging researcher whose work sits at the intersection of gerontechnology, nursing practice, and human-robot interaction, with a particular focus on the integration of care robots into assisted living facilities. Liu's scholarship addresses one of healthcare's most pressing challenges: the global nursing shortage and the rapidly expanding population of older adults requiring residential care. Through rigorous systematic literature reviews, Liu has examined how nursing staff perceive, experience, and respond to the introduction of care robots into their professional environments, shedding light on the complex attitudinal, practical, and ethical dimensions of this technological shift. Liu's two highly cited 2024 publications — garnering 15 and 11 citations respectively within their first year — demonstrate both the timeliness and relevance of this research agenda. By centering the perspectives, needs, and preferences of nursing staff rather than focusing solely on patient outcomes or technological capabilities, Liu brings a human-centered lens to an often technology-driven conversation. This work provides healthcare administrators, policymakers, and technology designers with critical evidence to inform more effective and compassionate robot deployment strategies, making Liu a valuable contributor to the future of elder care innovation.
