About
Tochukwu Jonathan Okolie is a rising scholar whose work sits at the intersection of digital technology, aging, and immigrant well-being. His research critically examines how technological advancements—from social media and AI to smart homes and pet robots—affect the mental health and social integration of older adults, with a particular focus on marginalized populations. His most cited paper, a 2023 scoping review on the impact of digital technology on older immigrants and refugees, has already garnered 34 citations, underscoring its timely relevance. In this work, Okolie synthesizes evidence to reveal both the promises and pitfalls of digital tools for a vulnerable group often overlooked in tech discourse. Beyond this flagship study, his broader contributions explore how technology can either bridge or widen gaps in well-being for aging populations. Okolie’s research is notable for its human-centered approach, blending rigorous methodology with a deep commitment to equity. For students and researchers, his work offers a compelling roadmap for studying technology’s role in later life, especially among those navigating the dual challenges of aging and displacement.
