## Caption

This house in Pittsburgh’s Oakland neighborhood may look just like your grandma’s, but it’s actually an innovative lab run by Pitt researchers. According to the AARP, more than 75% of aging adults want to stay in their homes, but only 10% of those homes are aging-ready. Pittsburgh, where traditional houses have steep stairs, on-street parking and no second-floor bathrooms, is the perfect place to develop and test aging-in-place technology, which is exactly what Pitt researchers are doing at the Healthy Home Lab. The home’s technical director, Jon Pearlman, calls it “an example of a project that is intricately linked to all parts of the Pitt mission.”
