Bridging the Health Gap with Wearable Technology - ABC Radio Sydney interview

In this special ABC Radio Sydney interview, Lockie Cooke, founder and CEO of iYARN, joins host Craig Reucassel to discuss how wearable technology is transforming healthcare access in remote Aboriginal communities across Australia.

Lockie shares how iYARN’s culturally informed digital platform is empowering researchers and healthcare professionals to collect real-time health data seamlessly — from heart rate and ECG scans to wellbeing check-ins — all while upholding data sovereignty and community ownership.

The conversation dives into:

  • How projects with the Djurali Aboriginal Heart Research Centre are improving early detection of atrial fibrillation (AF).

  • The critical role of telehealth and wearables in improving access to care in remote regions.

  • Why data security and sovereignty are essential to ensure First Nations health data stays protected and locally managed.

  • What’s next for iYARN’s collaboration with the Digital Health CRC, to be showcased at SXSW Sydney 2025.

Tune in to explore how technology, culture, and community collaboration are helping bridge the health gap facing Indigenous Australians.
