Sumario:Election 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 peerreviewed 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.
