Hi Neil,

This event may be of interest to some ISL folks - it is organized by the Technology and Aging interest group of GSA.

Webinar on Virtual Functional and Frailty Measures for Telehealth Clinical and Research

Please join us for a webinar sponsored by our very own Technology and Aging Interest Group: The Synchronous, Virtual Functional and Frailty Measure in Research and Clinical Practice: Guidance from the Literature and Experts<https://www.geron.org/meetings-events/webinars?Itemid=1157>, scheduled for Wednesday, September 15, 2021, 1-2 pm ET.

In 2020, the GSA Technology and Aging Interest Group undertook a project to summarize 1) existing evidence- or experiential-based recommendations for safely implementing objective functional and frailty measures during a remote clinical or research assessment; 2) existing evidence- or experiential-based recommendations for implementing subjective alternatives to objective functional and frailty during a remote clinical or research assessment; and 3) current findings into tip sheets for the synchronous, remote administration of functional and frailty assessment over video conferencing. During this webinar, we will share the results of this work which are relevant to clinicians and researchers who administer frailty and functional measures in practice or during data collection.
