Apple has a new watch on health research

Last week’s Apple product launch included a new app for its watch – “which democratises how medical research is conducted.”  A free new app is for users to provide data, in the first instance, for three US studies, on menstrual cycles and gynaecological conditions, the relationship of heart rate and mobility signals to hospital admissions and impact of everyday sound exposure to hearing.”

Democratises medical research? Sure, among the Apple enfranchised.
