The interview with Dr. Scott Stringer, Medical Director, and Tamara Kario, Administrator, followed a research partnership between the ACC Care Center and a Q&I-led research team, during which ACC Care Center leaders implemented tuned lighting -- lighting that changes in color and intensity to mimic natural day and night -- and researchers measured lighting and assessed the feasibility of measuring the impact on sleep and dementia-related behaviors.

Ms. Noell-Waggoner is an interior architect whose passion is lighting and aging vision, and a member of the multi-disciplinary research team. Her interview with Dr. Stringer and Ms. Kario was included in a presentation, "Light and Spectral Exposure: A Day in the Life of a Care Center Resident," at the Environments for Aging Conference (June 1-2, 2020). It will also be included in a recorded presentation for LightFair International (July 23, 2020).
