ABSTRACT
Technological advances within smartphone devices are creating new innovative routes to improve monitoring, delivery and effectiveness of clinical interventions. In this talk, Dr. Leightley will present Drinks:Ration, a smartphone app designed to reduce alcohol misuse in veterans through the application of machine learning and behavioral change theory. This combination enables us to personalize both the content of Drinks:Ration and messaging to promote healthy lifestyle changes in the armed forces community.
