Health Data Science Symposium

The 4th Annual Health Data Science Symposium at Harvard will be in Boston on November 4th, 2022

Smartphones, Wearables, and Health

Hosted by the Brigham & Women’s Hospital/Harvard Medical School Dept of Neurosurgery’s Computational Neuroscience Outcomes Center & the Harvard School of Public Health Onnela Lab. 

Keynote Speaker:

Rosalind W. Picard, Sc.D., FIEEE (Director of Affective Computing Research, Faculty Chair, MIT Mind+Hand+Heart)

The 2022 focus is Digital Phenotyping & personal sensing in health. The symposium brings together leading experts for a day of talks, abstract presentations, and collaborative networking around state-of-the-art advances across academia and industry in the health data sciences. 

This year we are adding a workshop day on Thursday, November 3rd, entitled Introduction to Digital Phenotyping and the Beiwe Platform: Concepts, Design, Theory, Analysis. The workshop is intended for anyone with a serious interest in conducting research studies using both active data (e.g., surveys, EMA) and passive data (e.g., GPS, accelerometer, communication logs) collected from smartphones and will consist of lectures and hands-on lab exercises.

SUBMIT YOUR ABSTRACT HERE

Submission Deadline: October 3rd, 2022 at 11:59pm ET 

Multiple submissions are welcome, including abstracts that have been presented in part elsewhere. Updates on recently published, cutting-edge research will also be considered.
