Design for Aging

Will anyone in this community be interested in participating in or simply sharing opinions on a research project that attempts to integrate the visualization and code-compliance checking enabled by building information modeling (BIM) in aging-in-place design?

We're at an initial stage of a 360 degree assessment of this idea, and we need input from the professional community. Please post here if you're interested!

Thank you!

I am not sure I understand the objective or specific input for this research project.  But I am passionate about the universal design appraoch to buildings and the tsunami of aging citizens of our country and the planet.  Having served on an Aging Readiness Task Force in our county for a year, I am deeply committed to the dialogue and social impacts of our practices on this growing segment of the local community.  Fill me in on the details and terminology I am missing from a couple decades away from the halls of higher education.
