What if we redefined the Quantified Self movement to include everyone who keeps a pair of “skinny jeans” in their closet? Themes from two recent speeches by Susannah Fox.
Susannah Fox will be the opening keynote speaker at a symposium on self-tracking in health.
Thirty percent of U.S. adults provide support to a loved one. The internet is a key information and communications resource for this front-line labor force.
Susannah Fox presented research on how people, particularly those living with rare disease, use online health resources and what the rest of us can learn from them.
At the 19th International AIDS Conference, Susannah Fox shared a social history of the internet – our national story and her grandmother’s story.
Presenting our research to a roomful, not just a row full, of rare-disease patients and caregivers was an extraordinary experience.
Pew Internet asked two questions about “self-tracking” in 2010 – how should we expand this area of our research?
The American Journal of Managed Care recently published a commentary entitled, “Bowling Alone, Healing Together: The Role of Social Capital in Delivery Reform.”
Stephen Wolfram predicts that we will all self-track some day, but a Pew Internet survey suggests we have a long way to go. Just 1 in 4 internet users track health data online.
