Dr Alan Cronemberger Andrade - Digital phenotyping in dementia and neurology: we have questions

Dr Alan Cronemberger Andrade narrates his blog written for Dementia Researcher.

Digital interactions could be useful for tracking health states, especially for brain disorders. The problem is that this kind of data may be harder to protect, and less controlled by ourselves. People with dementia, and other cognitive and behavioural problems, are vulnerable to data insecurity. In this blog Alan describes what digital phenotyping is.. the good and bad aspects of using it, and some future perspectives behind ethical and methodological difficulties. Healthcare professionals and non-clinical researchers need to talk more about that.
