Johns Hopkins Artificial Intelligence and Technology Collaboratory for Aging Research

WHAT IS THE AITC?

A national resource
for new approaches.

The National Institute on Aging-funded JH AITC connects researchers and businesses with pilot funding, engineering and clinical expertise, and resources to develop and test technologies for older adults.

Its priorities include embodied AI, wearables, connected health, and research supporting people with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias and their caregivers. Older adult perspectives and access to underserved communities help shape this work.
