Digital Behavior Change in Health

Now that virtual healthcare is ubiquitous, behavioral scientists must tackle complex healthcare problems from a distance. In this live conversation between Jennifer La Guardia of Omada Health and Aline Holzwarth of Pattern Health, the two behavioral scientists will talk all things behavior change in the context of digital healthcare — from the unique challenges of remote care to the types of behavioral interventions that work from afar.
