DASH Lab
Wright State University
Data Science for Healthcare Lab
We build data-driven approaches to healthcare challenges using wearable sensing, machine learning, and human-centered research design. Our work connects computational methods with practical needs in health and learning.
About the lab
The DASH Lab is an academic research group at Wright State University. We focus on psychologically meaningful questions that matter to students, families, and community partners in the Miami Valley.
Research areas
Wearable sensing, artificial intelligence for health, cognitive flow, and data-driven decision support.
Opportunities
We regularly recruit participants for new studies and welcome students interested in hands-on research experience.
Location
