Health and Technology: Are Siri and Alexa Good Workout Partners?

For this episode, The Gateway will explore one of the most lucrative and impactful areas of technology and business—health and fitness. Each day consumers are inundated with advertisements about applications, gadgets, and programs that praise a revolutionary approach to accomplishing your fitness goals. In many industries, technology has been an essential solution, but has it been within wellness? Does technology help? Or is technology being used to reframe the “fad diet” for a new generation?

To help examine the impact of technology on our health and wellness, The Gateway is proud to welcome Dr. Lynn Herrmann. Dr. Herrmann earned her PhD in community health - health behavior with a kinesiology focus. She also has a MPH with a health promotion concentration.

As an associate professor of public health and health education at Northern Illinois University, her research interests relate to the social aspects of exercise and how to promote exercise utilizing social factors, specifically through the use of social media. Dr. Herrmann teaches health promotion courses at undergraduate and graduate levels. She is an American Council on Exercise certified Group Fitness Instructor, Health Coach, Personal Trainer, and Medical Exercise Specialist, and serves as a Subject Matter Expert for the American Council on Exercise.
