Abstract

During this Lunch & Learn, we will provide an overview of the Ametris LEAP solutions and its fit-for-purpose device family. We will explore the available sensor options, from our core tri-axis accelerometer for physical activity and sleep measurement to more advanced sensor options incorporating PPG technology for physiological measures.

The session will also include a live demonstration of our software solutions, including ActiLife, our desktop-based platform designed for hands-on, customizable data analysis, and CentrePoint, our web-based platform designed for remote monitoring and near-real-time data access.

Join us to learn how Ametris LEAP devices and software can support a range of clinical research and data collection needs.

This is an in-person event, and it will not be recorded. Registration is required by August 28th, and seating is limited. A light lunch and refreshments will be served.

All Lunch & Learn sessions will be held on the first and third Tuesday of the month from 12 to 1 PM. with the exception of some dates due to holidays and events.

We hope you can join us for these important sessions hosted by the Office of Health Research!
