a lot of the things I'm going to show you,

it's something that we can use for some incredible ways

to help people actually take the right medication at the right time.

so that any phone that a senior is already comfortable with

can help them deal with their medications.

And a lot of what they do is they pick up the phone,

and it's our system whispering to them which pill they need to take,

and they fake like they're having a conversation with a friend.

And they're not embarrassed by a meds caddy that's ugly,

that sits on their kitchen table and says,

of taking the right pill at the right time.

Now, we also do some pretty amazing things with these phones.

Because that moment when you answer the phone

is a cognitive test every time that you do it.

Think about it, all right? I'm going to answer the phone three different times.

between the way I answered the phone the three times.

of whether they can figure out that person on the other end

is a friend and we start talking to them immediately,

or they do a lot of what's called trouble talk,

where they're like, "Wait, who is this? Oh." Right?

may be the best early indicator of the onset of dementia

than anything that shows up clinically today.

There's lots of others. Is the person going to the phone

as quickly, when it rings, as they used to?

Is it a hearing problem or is it a physicality problem?

Has their voice gotten more quiet? We're doing a lot of work with people

with Alzheimer's and particularly with Parkinson's,

where that quiet voice that sometimes shows up with Parkinson's patients

of Parkinson's five to 10 years before it shows up clinically.

But those subtle changes in your voice over a long period of time

are hard for you or your spouse to notice until it becomes so extreme

So, sensors are looking at that kind of voice.

and what is that like, and what is that trend like over a period of time?

Are you having more trouble dialing the phone than you used to?

Is it a dexterity problem? Is it the onset of arthritis?

Are you using the phone? Are you socializing less than you used to?

And looking at that pattern. And what does that decline in social health

mean, as a kind of a vital sign of the future?

might be able to use this newfangled technology

to actually interact with a nurse or a doctor on the other end of the line.

once we're allowed to actually do those kinds of things.

So, these are what I would call behavioral markers.

And it's the whole field that we've been trying to work on

How do you put simple disruptive technologies,

and the first of five phrases that I'm going to talk about in this talk?

in a meaningful way that's going to help us with

prevention of disease, early onset of disease,

and tracking the progression of disease over a long period of time?

spend a lot of time and money, over the last 10 years,

trying to understand the needs of seniors

and start thinking about these kinds of behavioral markers?

This is some of the field work that we've done.

We have now lived with 1,000 elderly households

and their access to healthcare, and how much they socialize,

If they have a hip fracture we go with them

and we study their entire discharge experience.

If they have a family member who is a key part of their care network,
