The Centre for Assistive Technology and Connected Healthcare at the University of Sheffield is a translational research centre. We research, develop, evaluate and implement new technologies to enable people to live well and age well.

Our academic credentials speak for themselves

We are very successful at applying for funding having won over

£12,000,000

for us and our partners since the center was launched in 2013. These include public funding bodies such as NIHR, EPSRC and EU Horizon2020 and internal University of Sheffield funding.

“Our vision is to transform the ways in which people are enabled to live well and age well through the application of ubiquitous and personalised technology”
