Scientists combined movement data gathered from wearable tech with a new medical AI technology to identify movement patterns and predict disease progression in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and Friedreich’s ataxia (FA). Both are genetic diseases that affect movement and lead to paralysis. There are no cures.
