Hidden Gems of Aging - Featuring Cadense

Join us for a conversation with the leadership team at Cadense.

Cadense helps people walk more safely, confidently, and naturally — especially when walking feels difficult or uncertain.

They have design adaptive footwear for people who experience challenges like toe drag, instability, hesitation, or fatigue while walking. Their shoes are built to reduce trips and falls and help each step feel smoother and more controlled.

Cadense began with research at MIT where founder of Cadense, Dr. Tyler Susko, worked on the MIT Skywalker, a robotic gait rehabilitation system designed to help people walk more rhythmically after neurological injury.

That work revealed a powerful insight: reducing friction during part of the step can make walking feel easier and more natural. At UCSB, this insight evolved into Variable Friction Technology—the foundation of every Cadense product today.

Restoring Independence At Home

Restoring Independence at Home: Designing Regional Systems for Sustainable, Replicable Aging-in-Place Models
Dr. Comfort Uwadiae, DPT, CEAS, ECHM, CAPS

Session Description
Healthcare systems, housing providers, and aging services organizations face growing pressure to move beyond isolated home modifications. Coordinated, scalable aging-in-place strategies are increasingly being implemented in efforts to meet the needs of the aging population.

This session explores how clinical assessment, environmental risk governance, and cross-sector system design can transform fragmented referrals into integrated regional operating models supporting sustainable aging at home.

Attendees will learn to identify high-risk environmental zones and align functional mobility needs with institutional design and accessibility standards. Participants will also gain guidance on supporting implementation decisions through coordinated clinical, housing, and community leadership that advances aging-in-place initiatives.

The session will provide a practical governance framework for improving outcomes, reducing system strain, and strengthening partnerships across healthcare, housing, and aging services ecosystems. This includes those that serve older adults with complex clinical and environmental needs.
