Digital Health Project Lab (HPI-DH-PL)

Driven by curiosity? In the “Digital Health Project Lab” you can develop and investigate your own research question. Supported by scientist with different backgrounds, you will plan, conduct, analyze and report a psychological or medical study using a digital solution (e.g., behavior tracking via smartphone).

First, you learn how to get ethical approval as well as funding. Second, you understand what makes a good study design and set-up your own experiment. Third, you, as a junior scientist, run the experiment online, in the laboratory, or in the field. Finally, you analyze your data and present the results to a broader audience (e.g., at a poster presentation or a short report).
