Welcome to the CIAS community!

I'm Mary Katherine, and if you've attended an orientation session or sought assistance with CIAS in the past year, chances are we've crossed paths. In addition to my role in supporting various studies within our lab, I take immense pride in being a member of the CIAS investigative team and leading the charge as the platform's primary trainer. One of the most fulfilling aspects of my job is discovering the myriad ways you all employ CIAS in your research pursuits and collaborating with you to uncover innovative uses for the platform. I enjoy your messages about study updates and relish in the wealth of information, tips, anecdotes, and feedback you generously share. I eagerly anticipate engaging with you all in our new forum but am most excited to encourage engagement with eachother. If you're a researcher using the platform, please sign up to introduce yourself and start posting your thoughts, questions, experiences and anything else you'd like to share with the community. Warm regards, Mary Katherine

Helllo CIAS users! We are conducting a usability study as part of our ongoing efforts to make CIAS 3.0 as useful as possible for the research community. To that end, we are seeking participants who have (a) worked with digital health interventions (e.g., developing, maintating, programming, etc.) for a minimum of 1 year, (b) have a title of one of the following: PI, Co-I, Project Coordinator or Manager, Research Assistant, or Independent Contractor and (c) have never used CIAS. Participating in this study will take a total of about 2-hours over the space of roughly 2-weeks (5-minute eligibility survey, 1-hour training via Zoom, and a 1-hour usability interview sesssion via Zoom). All participants will receive training in CIAS 3.0 and acess to the platfform following completion of the study. Those who complete all requested activities will receive e-gift cards totaling $120. Please share this study opportunity with any colleagues who fit these criteria. Thank you for sharing this opportunity with your networks and happy interveniton authoring!
