If you are 60 years of age or older and are experiencing memory problems as a result of:
- Stroke
- Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)
- Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI)
Weill Cornell Medicine’s Center on Aging and Behavioral Research is designing technology to support the memory needs of older adults experiencing memory problems and needs your input.
To do this, they need to learn more about the everyday activities you might be having trouble with, the technologies you may use to help with these activities, and how you think these technologies might be improved. Your input will be extremely valuable in helping them design new technologies for memory issues. Also, if you are living with someone with memory issues you both can participate!
Participation in this research study involves a series of phone interviews and you will be compensated financially. If you are interested in participating or have any questions, please contact them at: AgingBehavioralRsrch@med.cornell.edu or 646-962-7141.

On June 17 and 18, HPD told the first meeting of the Roosevelt Island Steam Plant Demolition Community Advisory Group that smokestack demolition had no projected start date. Residents and the CAG would receive at least five business days’ advance notice once a date was set. Scaffolding around the stacks could not proceed until soil removal and backfill were complete and the area stabilized.
