But Dishman, 35, a vibrant sociologist with tight tufts of light brown hair, heads Intel's Proactive Health Lab. His mission is to use technology to assist people with the "activities of daily living"--getting dressed, making meals and so forth--so that we can all age with dignity and stay home with loved ones as long as possible...
