2013 NIH-UCLA mHealth Summer Institute

2013 NIH-UCLA Summer Institute on Mobile Health (mHealth) Technology Research
August 26-30, 2013
University of California, Los Angeles

Using mobile technologies to more rapidly and accurately assess and modify behavior, biological states and contextual variables has great potential to transform medical research. Recent advances in mobile technologies and the ubiquitous nature of these technologies in daily life (e.g., smart phones, sensors) have created opportunities for research applications that were not previously possible (e.g., simultaneously assessing behavioral, physiological, and psychological states in the real world and in real-time). Importantly, much of the work being done in mHealth arises from siloed fields with a focus on the creation of high end products with little reference to behavior theory or to potential application in biomedical settings. Products uninformed by research, will not be maximally effective.
