Dr. Lillian Hung and Yuka Ohno stand smiling on either side of their research poster titled “Long-term care residents and staff perspectives on PARO using video reflexive ethnography” at GSA 2025.
Yuka Ohno and Dr. Takanori Shibata stand in front of the PARO booth in the exhibit hall at GSA 2025, each holding a fluffy white PARO seal robot and smiling at the camera.
Our #PARO project co-lead, Yuka Ohno, presented a poster on her work and met PARO’s inventor, Dr. Takanori Shibata, in the exhibit hall at #GSA2025. We’re excited to keep exploring how socially assistive robots like PARO can support people living with dementia and their care partners.

Older Adults' Close Friendships and Feelings of Lacking Companionship and Isolation Sarah Patterson, Presenter Co-authors: Yee To (Crystal) Ng, Emily Lerner, Erica Solway, Matthias Kirch, Sydney N.
