asthma tracking app

The National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering, a division of the National Institutes of Health, has awarded a group of researchers from UCLA and USC $6 million to develop technology designed for children that predicts their asthma attacks.

Dallas, Texas-based hospital Children's Health has launched a new app, called My Asthma Pal, to help children track and manage their asthma, according to the Dallas Business Journal.

The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and LifeMap Solutions have updated the asthma app, called Asthma Health, that they created for ResearchKit, Apple's open source platform that helps researchers build medical apps and recruit patients for clinical trials.
