Apple Health Study expands possibilities in medical research
The Apple Health Study, in collaboration with Brigham and Women’s Hospital, aims to leverage data from Apple and third-party devices to predict, detect, monitor, and manage changes in participants’ health. With over 350,000 participants from previous Apple studies, this new longitudinal study will explore connections across various health areas such as activity, aging, cardiovascular health, cognition, and more. By utilizing technology, researchers hope to overcome limitations in medical research related to participant recruitment, data capture, and study duration. The study will focus on a wide range of health and disease areas, including mental health, respiratory health, sleep, and mobility.
