Avicenna Research 926

Avicenna effectively transforms a smartphone into a portable research laboratory, enabling users to contribute to scientific studies across various fields, including health, psychology, and kinesiology. This platform provides an opportunity for individuals to engage in research that aligns with their interests.

Upon initiating participation, users will encounter a consent form detailing the research organization seeking data, the anonymization process for that data, the entities analyzing it, the purpose of the study, and the incentives offered for participation. This transparency is vital for informed consent.

During the research process, participants may be prompted with brief survey questions. Depending on the specific study, requests for location information or exercise habits may also arise; however, participation remains voluntary. Avicenna ensures that participants are consistently reminded of the data they are supplying.

Participants maintain complete control over their personal data. An accessible dashboard on the Avicenna website allows users to review their contributions at any time. Moreover, individuals have the option to withdraw from studies or delete any portion of their data without complications.

It is important to note that continuous use of GPS functionalities in the background may significantly affect battery performance.

This application has integration capabilities with the Health app.
