A Digital Platform for Behavioral Research & Care

The LAMP Platform is a neuropsychiatric research and clinical care management platform designed to help you run remote smartphone-based research studies that can include surveys (ecological momentary assessments), mobile cognitive tests, sensors (native to the smartphone and external), and digital interventions delivered via the smartphone. The LAMP Platform functions as 4 pieces: the App, the Dashboard, the Database, and Cortex. Learn more here.

App​: The patient uses the native Android and Apple app for a variety of purposes customized to your needs. This can include taking real-time surveys, playing cognitive games, accessing helpful tips and resources, doing meditation and breathing exercises, etc; and when enabled and configured, the app can also collect sensor data from the mobile device's accelerometer, GPS, pedometer, and more in the background without interrupting the patient. It also collects metadata about the patient's use of the app, like how long certain questions took to answer in a survey, or which helpful tips they appreciated the most, and uploads the data securely to a server you or your organization owns (or the CORE hosts for you). All content (psychoeducation, surveys, interventions, and feedback) as well as sensors activated can be fully customized and toggled off/on. The CORE can support any use case desired from the app acting as a simple medication reminder to a customized after care support tool to a full digital phenotyping suite. 

Dashboard​: Clinicians and Researchers can create, customize, and schedule activities for patients or participants to interact and receive notifications, and tap into near-real-time information about patients to better inform decision making. The dashboard also allows for unique interactive features for specialized research or clinical-specific use. Additionally, the dashboard now has a fully functional Data Portal for an in-depth and comprehensive view of all patient and participant data. The CORE can support custom dashboards and reporting or help with use of the flexible default. 

Database​: The Database securely and chronologically indexes the data through the LAMP Protocol for programming and data science. It informs custom data analysis code in real-time that new patient data has arrived. Researchers can better build reusable tools, analysis pipelines, and conduct reproducible science, knowing that others around the globe using the LAMP Platform can easily work with their data or replicate their unique study. ​ The CORE can provide support to host your own database or host your data in a private and secure manner. 

Cortex​: The Cortex data analysis pipeline is designed to easily hook into the Database and extract important and clinically useful secondary data features, such as sedentary behavior, time spent at home, device/screen usage, sleep estimates, and much more, from the terabytes of raw data. It can trigger custom just-in-time adaptive interventions and produce useful interactive visualizations viewable by patients and clinicians. The CORE can run default or custom analysis on your data.
