The T2RERC facilitates technology development, transfer and product commercialization benefitting elders and people with disabilities. The T2RERC conducts four research projects to advance the state of the art of technology transfer; and four development projects employing the practices of technology transfer and is a nationally recognized leader in this field. The T2RERC is part of the Center for Assistive Technology (CAT) within UB's School of Public Health and Health Professions (SPHHP) and is funded by the National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR).
