ISR Perspectives presents Richard Gonzalez, Director of Research Center for Group Dynamics (RCGD), as the next speaker in the "Getting to Know ISR" series.

Gonzalez will discuss ground-breaking research conducted at ISR's HomeLab, a fully functional mock apartment where researchers use personal observation, cameras, microphones, and wearable sensors to record data as participants perform ordinary daily living activities. They can also collect and analyze biomarker data from blood and saliva.

An important potential for HomeLab, a collaboration involving several U-M units - including ISR and BioSocial Methods - is studying how health and health care can be better managed at home for seniors.

Richard Gonzalez is Director of RCGD and the BioSocial Methods Collaborative; Professor of Psychology, and Marketing; and Research Professor at ISR and the Center for Human Growth and Development.

His interests include methodology and judgment/decision making, mathematical models for psychological processes in decision making, and mathematical models that integrate intra-individual processes that span multiple levels of analysis from biological to psychological to cultural.
