Laura Spradley's research focuses on improving the health and well-being of older adults, with a particular emphasis on dementia care, age-friendly education, and social connection. Her work has investigated the impact of caregiver workshops on individuals caring for those with dementia, finding positive effects. Spradley has also explored the use of artificial intelligence in developing multidisciplinary age-friendly education and training programs for the healthcare workforce.
