Research Study Design Considerations for Mobile Technology
November 8 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
Study designs that includes mobile apps requires planning, forethought, and awareness of the data needed to achieve your grant’s “specific aims”. Mobile devices are near ubiquitous but if you are building one into your study you will need to consider several laws (Common Rule, HIPAA, 21 CFR) and regulatory bodies that govern some aspects of use (FTC, FDA and some state privacy laws). Privacy concerns with mobile devices also need to be carefully thought through. For example, if data is automatically geo-tagged (most images are) and collected, this needs to be disclosed in your consent process. Join this session to go over key points to consider as you plan your next mobile device enhanced study.
