(Photo credit/ Fitbit)  Student athletes will now be donning Fitbits in an effort to study the connection between illnesses and wearable device tracking.  On April 1, the Pac-12 Conference announced a research collaboration with Fitbit and researchers at Stanford Medicine to study whether wearable devices can help detect and track infectious diseases like COVID-19.  About 1,000 student athletes across all Pac-12 universities will receive Fitbit Sense smartwatches to participate in the study. Continuing through 2021, the study will focus on student athletes participating in spring athletic programs and those training for upcoming sports seasons, including basketball, football, soccer and volleyball. Researchers will be looking to identify any correlation between the health data from the watches and results from COVID-19 testing and weekly surveys about potential exposure and symptoms.
