Kudos: O'Connor participates in Samsung's Galaxy Tech Forums panel
Patrick O’Connor, a professor in the Department of Kinesiology, participated in a panel at Samsung’s Galaxy Tech Forums on Thursday, Jan. 23 in San Jose, California.
In the session, titled “The Role of Technology for a Healthier Life,” O’Connor and other experts discussed the use of technology to track and measure health data, as well as the role of AI to consolidate and translate that data for people to better manage their health.
“The issue is not the amount of data but the fragmentation,” O’Connor said. “The key is to bring the scattered data together to create a comprehensive understanding, as health requires a holistic approach due to the interconnectedness of so many factors.”
