In our seventh webinar, we are handing the reigns over to our colleagues at the University of Manchester, Professor John Ainsworth and Dr James Cunningham.
In this webinar Professor Ainsworth and Dr Cunningham will talk about digital phenotyping in mental health. The webinar will cover the opportunities and challenges that digital phenotyping can deliver in mental health. Professor Ainsworth will also talk about the Connect study and the Mental Health Mission, explaining how these studies have been run and how they have successfully used smartphones and wearables to gather meaningful data. Data that may indicate if changes in activity levels, thoughts, feelings, and behaviours might relate to someone’s mental health getting better or worse.
Dr James Cunningham will then go into more detail about his work, ontological approaches to digital phenotyping. He will share how an ontological approach can explain logical relationships between captured data such as links between blue-tooth proximity and sociability and how to include these links in your research results.
This webinar is vital viewing for those interested in how to involve patient and public partners in study design, how to choose the right device for your study, data flow as well as how to work with patterns of missingness. Book for free today.
