Research Description

Dr. Moore’s research focuses on using innovative mobile technologies to improve assessment of daily, cognitive, and emotional functioning among older adults with chronic medical problems (e.g., HIV) and serious mental illness. Her current work utilizes Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) and wearable technology as low cost, efficient, objective measures of everyday functioning among older persons with HIV. She is also studying the effectiveness of mobile cognitive tests (administered via smartphones) to identify the influence of environmental, social, psychological, and behavioral influences on real-time cognitive function. Dr. Moore is involved in interdisciplinary collaborations with investigators from global public health, engineering, wireless technologies, computer science, and medicine to further develop innovative technology-based, real-time assessment techniques for research and clinical use.
