Noemie Elhadad: CovidWatcher: a citizen-science platform for tracking impact of the pandemic
Dr. Elhadad has developed CovidWatcher, which is a citizen-science platform for tracking the impact of the pandemic. It works as a crowd sourcing research platform to gather longitudinal information rather than a decision tool to advise patients if they should seek help. The goal is to provide information to different stake holders (such as the health department, hospitalists, etc) to help them obtain live statistics to predict hot spots and prevent future spread. The platform and IRB can accommodate up to 1 million participants and obtain information on symptoms and their environment.
