GSA-TAG
was founded as an “informal interest group” by Dr. Gari
Lesnoff-Caravaglia in 1987, who also served as Convener from 1987 to 1999.
In 1989, GSA awarded GSA-TAG formal status, permitting one Interest Group
Symposium at each Annual Scientific Meeting, in addition to other
workshops and symposia.
Membership
in GSA-TAG provides an opportunity for networking activities in the realm
of gerontechnology. GSA-TAG is comprised of academics, researchers,
industry, and practitioners, as well as students, working in the field of
gerontology and technology. Membership and participation in GSA-TAG does not
require membership in the Gerontological Society of America and is open to
all. |
