Dipl.-Psych. Wiktoria Wilkowska

Wiktoria Wilkowska is a psychologist and PhD student at Human Technology Centre of RWTH Aachen University in the research program eHealth "Enhancing Mobility with Aging." Currently her research is the investigation of acceptance and performance in consideration of different user characteristics with regard to usability of new technologies applied in the area of medical services. Prior to joining the eHealth research team at HUMTEC, she worked as a researcher at the VDI (The Association of German Engineers) being engaged in a project with young engineers-academics.
