RESEARCH: 4YouandMe research focuses on designing, doing the prerequisite development of clinical studies, submissions of protocols and consents to enable feasibility studies to be performed on how smartphones and other smart-devices such as smart-rings and smart-watches can be used to collate the data that can allow us and our contracted partners to build tools to allow individuals to better make lifestyle choices about their chronic conditions. We have developed relations with academic partners such as the Icahn School of Medicine, Oxford University, and Vector Insititute, and startups such as Evidation to help carry out this work with the understanding that we will place all the data, findings, algorithms, and apps in the public domain. Our mission is to see that our work will benefit both the larger scientific community and will be available to nourish communities of the public by giving freely available tools and findings to help humanity. The apps are now poised to be placed on GitHub and the data and the findings are now poised to be hosted on the Synapse Platform built by Sage Bionetworks (nonprofit).
