About
Lihui Pu is an emerging researcher at the intersection of assistive robotics, aged care, and dementia support, with a focus on developing and evaluating technology-driven interventions for vulnerable older populations. Her work addresses one of healthcare's most pressing challenges: improving the quality of life for people living with dementia in residential care settings. Pu's most notable contribution to date is her feasibility study on robot-led activities for people with dementia in aged care facilities, which employed a rigorous embedded mixed-methods design to examine how socially assistive robots can meaningfully engage residents with mild to moderate cognitive impairment. This research represents a critical step in translating robotic technology from laboratory settings into real-world care environments, bridging the gap between innovation and practical implementation. With 6 citations already accumulated since its 2024 publication, her work is gaining traction within the gerontechnology and dementia care communities. Pu's research holds significant implications for aged care policy and practice, particularly as facilities worldwide grapple with staff shortages and the growing demand for person-centered, scalable dementia care solutions.
