About
Marcy Doyle is a health services researcher whose work centers on technology-enabled care for older adults, with a particular focus on telepresence robotics and their integration into community living settings. Her most cited paper, "Perspectives on a telepresence robot at an independent living facility: lessons learned and implications" (2023, 9 citations), provides foundational insights into the practical challenges and opportunities of deploying mobile videoconferencing robots in environments where older adults reside. Doyle’s research critically examines how these technologies can enhance social connection, healthcare access, and quality of life, while also identifying barriers such as usability, privacy concerns, and staff training needs. Her contributions are especially significant given the rapid expansion of telehealth and the growing emphasis on aging in place. By documenting real-world implementation lessons, Doyle helps bridge the gap between technological innovation and gerontological practice, offering actionable guidance for designers, clinicians, and facility administrators. Her work is steadily gaining recognition as a key reference for researchers exploring human-robot interaction and digital health equity among aging populations.
