Wearable Technologys Potential to Help Detect Illness
AUGUST 11, 2020
Welcome
The world’s most significant health advances have resulted from medical research, and Fitbit is proud to say that its devices are the most commonly used physical activity devices to appear in published work. Fitbit has worked with leading research institutions to pioneer new approaches to cancer treatment, weight loss, and more.
In 2019, the company worked with Scripps Research to help improve surveillance of influenza-like illnesses—a particularly relevant and important project that was the basis for Fitbit’s new, unique solution to help employers bring employees safely back to the workplace.

- Explain Fitbit's role in medical research
- Describe how the promising results of the Scripps wearables study are helping to drive solutions for employers
