Describes motivation process for creativity with emphasis on intrinsic motivation by Corey K Katir


GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Reaching over to make the bed or bending to get a grocery bag might not be the typical idea of being physically active. But all those everyday movements add up and could contribute to health benefits, especially among older adults — even if itas not clear just how much energy seniors are exerting.


GAINESVILLE, Fla. a Restricting calories extends life and slows a range of age-related disorders in mice, rats and other organisms. But even after eight decades of research on the subject, scientists are still unclear just how caloric restriction exerts its age-battling influence.


GAINESVILLE, Fla. — University of Florida scientists have identified a key cellular process involved in age-related damage to the liver — and ways to reverse that damage by manipulating genes or administering certain drugs.


As the baby boom generation (those born in the years 1946-1964) ages into an elderly population, there will be a dramatic increase in the requirements to provide services to this population. The number and availability of children of thesebaby boomersis neither large enough nor available enough to care for this aging population by themselves. History also shows that the primary desire of these elders from both a cost and quality of life standpoint will be to stay at home rather than be required to go to nursing homes or assisted living facilities.

This forum will explore the demographics and needs of our aging population, the currently available approaches and technology, and future opportunities for developing assistive technology to address the needs of our aging population. The goal of this forum will be to provide an overview of the needs and issues of an aging population, and to spark discussion about the opportunities presented by the challenges. The forum will have speakers from geriatric medicine, health care and technology companies that are addressing this critical need.

Dr. Alan Teel, the keynote speaker, will be available before the sessionat the Foley Hoag Emerging Enterprise Center beginning at 4:30 p.m. to autograph his book Alone and Invisible No More: How Grassroots Community Action and 21st Century Technology Can Empower Elders to Stay in Their Homes and Lead Healthier, Happier Lives.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND:

  • Family and care organizations interested in the challenges and opportunities for keeping the elderly in their own homes
  • Entrepreneurs and medical-device companies interested in using technology to keep the elderly at home
  • Those in the Medical Development Group community interested in better understanding the economic and risk issues with enabling the elderly to remain in their own homes

KEYNOTE SPEAKER:

Allan S. Teel, MD. Allan Teel has practiced geriatric and family medicine in Damariscotta, Maine, for 25 years. Dr. Teel is founder and president of Full Circle America, an innovative approach that uses grassroots community action and 21st century technologies to empower elders to stay in their homes.
