About

Dr. Lynn Jackson is a leading researcher at the intersection of gerontechnology, dementia care, and quality improvement, with a specific focus on mitigating social isolation among older adults. Her most influential work, a scoping review on telepresence robots in aged care (58 citations), has become a foundational resource for understanding the facilitators and barriers to technology adoption in these settings. Dr. Jackson’s research goes beyond simple implementation, critically examining how tools like the Plan-Do-Study-Act cycle can be adapted to support the integration of social robots in long-term care. She is a pioneer in advocating for co-design methodologies, ensuring that social robots are developed *with* older adults living with dementia, not just for them. Her recent work also includes a critical evaluation of the Patient Engagement In Research Scale (PEIRS), demonstrating her commitment to authentic patient and family partner involvement in dementia research. Through her rigorous scoping reviews and reflective methodologies, Dr. Jackson is shaping a future where technology serves as a genuine bridge to human connection, not a replacement for it.
