Apple Announces New Health Study Involving the iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPodsA new comprehensive Apple Health Study is
launching today in the
Apple Research app. Apple says U.S. residents can participate in the study if they meet the minimum age requirements, and complete the informed consent process.
The new Apple Health Study aims to further understand how technology, including the iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods, can "play a role in advancing and improving physical health, mental health, and overall wellbeing."
The research study will also "explore relationships between various areas of health, such as mental health's impact on heart rate, or how sleep can influence exercise."
This is Apple's most holistic research study yet. It will track how technology impacts many aspects of health and diseases, including activity, aging, cardiovascular health, circulatory health, cognition, hearing, menstrual health, mental health, metabolic health, mobility, neurologic health, respiratory health, sleep, and more.
The all-encompassing Apple Health Study builds upon the Apple Women's Health Study, Apple Hearing Study, and Apple Heart and Movement Study.
Apple is conducting the study in collaboration with Brigham and Women's Hospital, a leading research hospital and Harvard Medical School teaching affiliate.
Apple Research is available in the App Store for the iPhone and Apple Watch. The app was updated today with the Apple Health Study.<div class="linkback">Tag:
