9🏅 Self-supervised learning for human activity recognition using 700,000 person-days of wearable data nature.com/articles/s4174…

Happy to announce our foundation model for wearables published at npj Digital Medicine today. This model sets a new standard in #Wearables, significantly outperforming human activity recognition benchmarks in diverse conditions. 🚀 nature.com/articles/s4174…

Great work by @apcreagh in collaboration with @OxWearables, @GSK, @bdi_oxford and @oxengsci Behaviour recognitions models trained using research data (@uk_biobank, and paperswithcode.com/dataset/captur…) work nicely on consumer devices (Apple Watch)!

New article! Read Digital health technologies and machine learning augment patient reported outcomes to remotely characterise rheumatoid arthritis dlvr.it/T2d1yf in npj Digital Med

Job alert - research position for those interested in analysing and validating data from wearables @bdi_oxford @Oxford_NDPH @UniofOxford tinyurl.com/wearablesPost Please feel to email me to find out more about this position (closing date = 30th August).

On a warm Monday evening, #pint23 is officially on! James St Tavern hosting @apcreagh and Becky Carlyle, about resilience in our brains and how wearables allow us to peek inside our own data and how to harness it @pintofscience

Hospitals are limited in data they can share with AI researchers for privacy reasons- Today, we're pleased to share one of the first uses of Federated Learning in the NHS! We trained & evaluated AI models across 4 UK hospitals without moving patient data medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Enjoy a drink while hearing about digital health and the wearable technology revolution! We are at the dawn of a digital healthcare revolution. The tsunami of physiological and behavioural data that can be collected from smartphones, smartwatches, fitness trackers and wearable devices - coupled with the latest advances in artificial intelligence & machine learning - will change the face of routine healthcare as we know it. Dr Andrew Creagh asks, "are we ready to embrace this technology?" @apcreagh pintofscience.co.uk/event/tracking…

Pleased to share our preprint on an open-source method that offers the most robust way to measure steps from wrist-worn accelerometers in large-scale studies such as the @uk_biobank. medrxiv.org/content/10.110… 🧵

Is longer sleep duration associated with lower risk of Alzheimer's Disease? tinyurl.com/sleepPRS New preprint using wearables & genomics where polygenic score shows ~2% sleep variance & association with AD. Neat work led by @Oxford_NDPH early career fellow Angel Wong.

Fab work with @M_Stamatakis @Matthew_Ahmadi_ @JasonGill74 @ma_hamer All made possible by the wonderful @uk_biobank accelerometer collection - a transformational resource to identify if/how wearables are associated with major disease outcomes.

You couldn't make it to #NeurIPS2022 this year? Nothing to worry - I curated a summary for you below focussing on key papers, presentations and workshops in the buzzing space of ML in Biology and Healthcare 👇

A preprint of our new paper is now available online! 🥳 "Digital health technologies (📱+⌚) and machine learning augment patient reported outcomes (📄) to remotely characterise rheumatoid arthritis." I summarise our main findings in the blog post below: andrewcreagh.com/blog/2022/WeaR…

Our new pre-print is now online! We use self-supervised learning for human activity recognition using 700,000 person-days of data in the UK Biobank. Fantastic collab between @angerhang, Shing Chan, @egctong, David Clifton, @aiden1doherty ! 📄arxiv.org/abs/2206.02909 👇

People are seeing into themselves in ways not possible before and are finding new ways to act on what they learn. The effect on health and lifestyle is likely to be profound econ.st/38NqEJm

Our new preprint is now available online 📢 (!!!)

Here @UCL_BSH we are looking for adults aged 50+ to take part in a research study exploring the influence of physical activity 👟 and sleep 😴 on #dementia risk using wrist-worn monitors ⌚️ 💵 £20 gift voucher for taking part! Interested? DM me for more info

Hard to concentrate on anything only poor Aisling Murphy this morning. Wrote this over a year ago. Not one man in Ireland will think twice about his safety if he pulls on his runners today. Plenty of women will. We won't fix it until we acknowledge it. irishtimes.com/sport/other-sp…

Introducing our first Guest Lecturer of the evening: Teresa Lambe! 👩‍🔬 Teresa is an Associate Professor based at @UniofOxford, and co-developed the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine. She continues to work on vaccines against diseases including Ebola, Influenza, and MERS. #XmasLectures

Job alert - genomic discovery of wearable phenotypes in the context of cardiometabolic disease @bdi_oxford tinyurl.com/22aztxa7 3yr post Exciting collaboration with @joannahowson @novonordisk Please do get in touch if interested.
