How Do Wearable Devices Contribute to Epidemiological Research?
Wearable devices such as fitness trackers and smartwatches collect real-time health data from individuals. These wearable devices can monitor vital signs, physical activity, and even detect early symptoms of diseases. In epidemiology, the data collected from wearables can provide insights into population health trends, helping to identify potential outbreaks and monitor the effectiveness of public health interventions.
