POWERMOM, A Healthy Pregnancy Research Community

April 15, 2024 updated by: Scripps Translational Science Institute
This study will take advantage of the open source framework of ResearchKit developed by Apple to bring research directly to participants. Using the ResearchKit platform as well as a stand alone app available for Android and HTML, it makes it easier to enroll large numbers of participants and carry out real-world health research to answer questions important to a broad population.
