advance our understanding of the brain, with a view to accelerating the
discovery of treatments and cures for brain-related disorders. We believe one
key to unlocking this knowledge is to be found in data collection, sharing, and
analysis.<span> </span>We want to apply machine
learning to potentially validate digital biomarkers and digital phenotyping for
neurological conditions, and thus find more effective solutions that can be
applied early and easily. Our goal is to use digital data to make significant
progress in how we care for people’s brain and mental health. This work will
include evaluating the validity of creating a digital health data repository
and sharing platform for brain health.<span></span></span></font></p><font size="2">
