Bipolar Disorder Self-Help App. Proposal

During my senior Spring at Cornell I took a course called Health and Computation. Throughout the course we were given numerous assignments to propose technology solutions to enhance various aspects of our current healthcare infrastructure. For our semester-end project, my team was given the task of proposing a self-help solution that would help patients of bipolar disorder and their families manage the patient’s illness. We proposed an application that incorporated patient-entered mood tracking, consolidate resources, and a machine learning alert-system that would be used to proactively identify instances of potential relapses. Our project was very research-centric and while we didn’t include any prototypes in our submission, we compiled an in-depth write up that outlined how our system would function based off of our findings in contemporary health literature.
