Aging well with open science: how a partnered approach to implementation can enhance equity and outcomes
In 2024, KT Connects is focusing on open science — the practice of making scientific inputs, outputs, and processes freely available to all with minimal restrictions. Learn more.
Webinar summary
Friday, December 6
12 – 1 p.m. PST
Can open science improve outcomes for older adults and caregivers in rural and northern communities?
The Centre for Technology Adoption for Aging in the North (CTAAN) works to make AgeTech—technology designed to support older adults—more accessible to older adults, caregivers and health systems in these communities. CTAAN is part of AGE-WELL, a national network focused on improving aging through technology. The centre tests, pilots and promotes solutions specifically designed to meet the needs of these regions.
Join Dr. Shannon Freeman, academic director of CTAAN, where she will share how open science supports engaged research, where researchers work alongside older adults, communities and health systems partners to ensure that their needs are met.
Dr. Freeman will give practical examples from CTAAN, including real-life AgeTech solutions where open science use is improving outcomes for older adults and caregivers in rural and northern communities.
Learning objectives
After this webinar, the audience will be able to:
- Understand how open science supports collaboration between researchers and communities
- Recognize the principles of engaged research and its role in addressing community needs
- Identify strategies and examples of how open science can be integrated into research priorities
