Homepage_Phone - A groundbreaking smartphone app for remote digital data collection which aims to predict if an individual will relapse into psychosis is to be trialled across the UK in a £12.5 million study. Led by University of Manchester researchers, the system will be tested across six Higher Education Institutions and their partnering NHS Trusts in England, Wales and Scotland. The work is also being conducted in partnership with The McPin Foundation. Called CONNECT , the project whose principle funder is the Wellcome Trust, aims to recruit up to 1100 people who experience psychosis. People will test the remote digital data collection system over 12 months. Developed at The University of Manchester, the remote digital data collection system combines active and passive remote symptom, emotional, physical and contextual monitoring, along with regular clinical assessments. The data from the project will be used to develop a relapse prediction algorithm and an adaptive sampling algorithm (for maximising engagement and information obtained from digital remote monitoring) using machine learning / AI methods.
