InCHIP Ideas Lab: “Harnessing the Potential of Our Data-Rich Lives to Improve Health and Well-Being”

Thursday, April 11th, 2019

12:00 AM - 11:59 PM

Storrs Campus
To be Announced

InCHIP’s Ideas Lab is designed to engage teams of interdisciplinary researchers in tackling “wicked problems” by exploring new ways of thinking about, studying, and generating novel solutions to these complex issues. The focus of this Ideas Lab is to generate and examine questions such as: How can we better utilize wearable, mobile-based, and other data-rich technology to promote health and well-being and ultimately prevent and manage chronic disease in an ethical and legally sound fashion? We invite experts from a broad range of disciplines to join us in this work, including but not limited to: behavioral, social, biomedical, and environmental sciences; engineering and mathematics; policy and law; business; education; the arts and humanities; or any other discipline that can provide new insights and perspectives on this topic.
