Thanks, I hadn't heard that yet. This might be one of those situations where it's preferable to "let a thousand flowers bloom." For example, in another comment, I mentioned a study that's using the Oura ring, which is a great product, but has a far smaller user base than the mass-market Fitbit and Apple Watch audience that our study is focused on. So it's really additive to have both of our research efforts going forward.

To be fair Newsom might have implied several winners, but same point taken. ABC7 in SF just reported a collaboration as "Stanford and Fitbit", giving innovators.stanford.edu (not working) as a site to sign up. Relatedly I find the following: https://hitconsultant.net/2020/04/14/fitbit-scripps-stanford-to-study-role-of-wearables-to-detect-train-and-contain-infectious-diseases/#.XpeXJhnYrnE https://hitconsultant.net/2020/04/14/fitbit-scripps-stanford... I could imagine participants in any device-specific work opting-in to sharing anonymized data with one-or-more broader-based studies/analyses, if that is not part of opting-in to the device-specific work in the first place.

  It would be great if there were a way to join multiple studies at the same time. At the moment, though, you have to sign up separately for the Stanford COVID-19 Wearables Study: https://innovations.stanford.edu/#section-wearables https://innovations.stanford.edu/#section-wearables
