Research Bulletin

Since the research newsletter is on a planned pause until September, we wanted to make you aware of this event sponsored by DEB Digital Health Initiative, Eureka Team, and CTSI.


Ever wanted to launch a remote or "eCohort" Study and recruit patients around the world? How about collecting patient-reported outcomes or data from a wearable sensor? The Eureka platform is your UCSF resource for building online medical research studies, making it easy for participants to: 

  1. Provide electronic consent 

 

  1. Answer surveys online or in our mobile app 
  2. Contribute data from wearable devices, smartphones, electronic health records, and more!  

 

We are hosting a Eureka Build-a-thon on October 27, 2023!  

  1. Apply now for a chance to attend, build your study in Eureka, and win a year of free maintenance! The Build-a-thon application will be available August 14-28 via UCSF Open Proposals: https://open-proposals.ucsf.edu/eureka-build-a-thon-2023  

  

Learn more! Eureka hosts all types of online studies, with about a dozen currently live! The 2023 Build-a-thon is sponsored by DEB Digital Health Initiative, Eureka Team, and CTSI.
