🎉 We're so proud to announce that Emmi Antikainen, one of our brilliant early career researchers in IDEA-FAST, has successfully defended her PhD thesis. Emmi has been instrumental in pushing the boundaries of data analysis in our project and you can read about her research in her paper "Assessing fatigue and sleep in chronic diseases using physiological signals from wearables: A pilot study” (https://lnkd.in/eAZPjJkh), a very important research piece on the IDEA-FAST Feasibility Study data. Emmi’s hard work and dedication have greatly contributed to our project, and we're excited to see what she does next. Please join us in congratulating Emmi on this fantastic achievement!

On March 12th-13th, in Desenzano del Garda, the IDEA-FAST consortium gathered to discuss current progress and next steps during the 2024 General Assembly.   More than 100 participants from over 50 partner organizations took part in the sessions, in person and online, including patients participating in our Clinical Observational Study. The assembly included sessions that enabled us to review the project’s progress and future steps, identify new growth opportunities and links to be strengthened, and support interaction among consortium members.
