Oral Presentation: Best Practices for Digital Phenotyping Research in Aging Populations

This is part of the monthly MassAITC webinar series. Abstract: Digital phenotyping is transforming aging research by enabling high-frequency, real-world measurement of cognition, behavior, symptoms, and context through smartphones, wearables, and passive sensing technologies. This talk will review how digital health tools can complement traditional clinic-based assessments by capturing intraindividual variability, diurnal patterns, environmental influences, and subtle changes in cognitive and functional performance that may signal risk for neurodegenerative disease. Using examples from studies of healthy aging, MCI, Alzheimer’s disease risk, dementia caregiving, and related clinical populations, the talk will highlight best practices for designing digital phenotyping protocols, balancing participant burden with data richness, maximizing adherence, integrating active cognitive assessments with passive data streams and biomarkers, and applying analytic approaches that distinguish within-person change from between-person differences. The session will emphasize opportunities for digital phenotyping…
