Data collected through the mPower app on Apple’s mHealth platform will help researchers in future Parkinson’s disease studies.
One of the first ResearchKit projects is going live with its data.
Sage Bionetworks has released information collected from more than 9,500 consumers for future studies on people with Parkinson’s disease. The information, collected over six months by the research non-profit through its mPower iPhone app, will be used in research on a degenerative neurological condition that affects 7 million to 10 million people globally.
