Dr. Lillian Hung is an assistant professor in the School of Nursing at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. Her research examines how technology and the environment impact older people’s care experiences, especially those living with dementia. She engages her work in issues of social justice, diversity, and inclusion. She brings connectivity between academia and practice, working collaboratively with older people, decision-makers, and interprofessional practitioners to find technological solutions to pressing problems in care practice. Her recent project includes social robotics, iPad on Wheels, Silent Disco Headphones, and a Mobile App for Dementia Education. By researching with people with lived experiences together, she explores the science of coproduction for change.
