The research findings and publications all belong strictly to the grantee. All of the data collected (self-reported and physiological) belongs to the grantee. We do not access or own this anonymized data at any point before, during, or after the study. You can view the full terms and conditions here.
The Advanced plan gives you access to our full range of metrics with no caps on data quantity. Remotely collect wearable, survey and event tracking data from up to 50 participants. All participant data is neatly organized and exported into CSV files. *Analytics reports are not included*
For the fall and winter grants, awardees will receive 5 Garmin Vivosmart 4 devices.
Yes! We’ve passed all our IRBs in the two years we’ve been active. We have support documentation here and we can offer additional support if necessary.
The grants are designed to be run by a student with the help of an advisor/professor. They should submit the grant themselves but one of our criteria is a strong letter of recommendation.
No, students can be from anywhere in the world.
