Mobile Technologies Research Innovation Collaborative
The Mobile Technologies Research Innovation Collaborative, or MeTRIC, is a campus-wide initiative designed to foster knowledge sharing and create a single access point for U-M investigators who are looking to use wearables, apps or other mobile technologies in their health research.
The collaborative–founded by the Eisenberg Family Depression Center, Precision Health, and the Department of Anesthesiology–includes multidisciplinary units from across U-M’s campus. The combined efforts of these units represent a wealth of knowledge providing a solid foundation for anyone in need of support.

Navigating the development, regulatory aspects, and deployment of studies that include mobile technologies can be challenging for many investigators. MeTRIC streamlines the process by bringing all the expertise and resources together - creating a centralized, collaborative space for leaders across U-M to connect, share and build knowledge that spans the entire research cycle. Our goals are to:
For questions about MeTRIC membership, contact Victoria Bennett.
MeTRIC also provides oversite and strategic direction for three affinity groups, which are a resource for investigators and teams who are interested in using wearable and mobile technologies in health research.
Each group provides a unique way for you or your team to connect with U-M experts to encourage the increased integration of mobile technologies into health studies. Learn more
