The 2011 mHealth Summit seeks abstracts for presentations from the academic, public and private research sectors that highlight ground-breaking health research using mobile technologies in clinical medicine and public health outcomes. Submissions can address a wide range of mobile health technologies including assessment and diagnostic tools, preventive health efforts, disease surveillance methods, chronic disease management, mobile telemedicine, and behavior change interventions. Although feasibility/usability and pilot studies of cutting-edge applications will be considered, priority will be given to presentations that provide a rigorous and well-controlled evaluation (the design of which should be described in the abstract) of the application of mobile technology to improve health. Novel research designs that utilize the rich data source available from the mobile technologies themselves are particularly encouraged. All submissions will be reviewed by the planning committee and may be accepted for either an oral or poster presentation. Presentations will be grouped thematically in tracks as moderated sessions and are expected to be approximately 12 minutes in length.
Topics Include:
- Research Tools for Remote Monitoring/Assessment
- Health Promotion/Disease Prevention
- Disease Screening and Diagnostic Tools
- Maternal and Child Health
- Infectious or Acute Disease
- Chronic Disease Management
- Health Disparities and Underserved Populations
