About
Dr. Rachel Cohen is a leading researcher in gerontechnology and digital health, with a focus on home health monitoring for older adults. Her work bridges health informatics and human-centered design, investigating how remote monitoring technologies can improve health outcomes while addressing real-world usability challenges. Her most cited paper, "Evidence and User Considerations of Home Health Monitoring for Older Adults: Scoping Review" (2022, 38 citations), systematically maps the effectiveness of monitoring across diverse health domains and identifies critical gaps in the literature—particularly around user perspectives and equity. This foundational review has guided subsequent studies on technology adoption among aging populations. Dr. Cohen’s research emphasizes that successful monitoring systems must integrate clinical evidence with older adults’ preferences, privacy concerns, and technological literacy. Her contributions have informed policy discussions on aging-in-place and remote care, and she is recognized for advancing patient-centered approaches in digital health innovation. Through her work, Dr. Cohen continues to shape how researchers and clinicians design, evaluate, and implement home monitoring solutions that truly serve older adults.
