Graham D. Rowles is professor of gerontology (emeritus) and was founding director of the Graduate Center for Gerontology at the University of Kentucky. An environmental gerontologist, his research focuses on the lived experience of older adults. A central theme of this work is exploration, employing qualitative methodologies, of the changing relationship between older adults and their environments and implications of this relationship for health, well-being and environmental design. He has conducted in-depth ethnographic research with elderly populations in inner-city, rural (Appalachian) and nursing facility environments. Recent research has focused on long-term care and the meaning of place in old age. Dr. Rowles has published widely in the field of gerontology.
There is no charge for this program.
