AbstractElection to Grandmaster is the highest recognition of members of the International Society for Gerontechnology (ISG). Dr. Charness is the sixth ISG member elected to Grandmaster status, a membership category created in 2010. Newly selected grandmasters have a special issue of Gerontechnology, the official journal of the ISG published in their honor. The grandmaster selects the themes and authors of the peer-reviewed contributions in the issue. Grandmaster Charness has chosen a group of articles written by the members of the Center for Research and Education on Aging and Technology Enhancement (CREATE), a multidisciplinary, multi-university consortium of researchers devoted to advancing applications of human factors research to the performance of aging and aged adults interacting with technology. Dr. Charness is a cofounder of this consortium active since its founding.Keywords: Gerontechnology, human factors research and aging, technology-based interventions and aging
