mHealth Connect is a group that aims to improve the use of physical activity wearables and apps for clinical purposes. It held a workshop (http://mobilize.stanford.edu/mhealthconnect/) in March 2016 that brought together device and app developers with a diverse group of clinicians and researchers to foster cross-understanding, seed collaborations, and identify key barriers and next steps to advance this field.



The goals of mHealth Connect are being advanced through two working groups on:

1. Validation: Led by Catrine Tudor-Locke (UMass Amherst), Greg Welk (Iowa State), Arun Jayaraman (Northwester/Rehab Institute of Chicago), and AJ Aranyosi (MC10)


2. Translation into Clinical Practice: Led by Matthew Smuck (Stanford)
