Dr. Connelly's research focuses on user
acceptance of ubiquitous and mobile computing technologies where there is a
delicate balance between such factors as convenience, control and privacy.
Dr. Connelly's most recent work emphasizes health and wellness applications
to empower both the ill and the healthy to manage and improve their own
health and make healthy choices.
