COVIDENTIFY: Using Wearable Devices and Smartphones to Detect and Monitor COVID-19 and Influenza
Wednesday, June 17, 2020 - 10:00am to 11:00am
Details
Teams of doctors and scientists are investigating whether the data from wearable devices can help determine whether or not you have a COVID-19 infection, and how severe the infection is expected to get. Study participants answer two simple questions each day for 30 days and then every week for 2 months. Join the Duke Mobile App Gateway for this educational session to learn more about the relationship between COVID-19 and influenza detection and monitoring with wearable devices.
