The Dartmouth Innovation Accelerator for Digital Health (DIADH) provides innovators across Dartmouth with the support, entrepreneurial guidance, and infrastructure needed to translate their science-based digital therapeutics and digital health tools into the marketplace

The digital health ecosystem includes digital diagnostics, digital biomarkers, remote patient monitoring tools, wearables and biologic sensors, point of care and clinical workflow enhancement tools and digital therapeutics – clinical interventions delivered directly to individuals via software to treat, manage or prevent a disease or disorder. DIADH will embrace this full spectrum of digital health in the work it supports.

The Dartmouth Innovation Accelerator for Digital Health is a joint effort between the Magnuson Center for Entrepreneurship and the Center for Technology and Behavioral Health (CTBH). It will serve innovators within the Dartmouth College and Dartmouth Health community who aspire to bring their digital health solutions and virtual tools to the marketplace. We encourage participation from teams comprised of faculty, graduate and professional school students, post-docs, staff, and undergraduates.

• Expand the reach of CTBH and Dartmouth science to improve people’s lives
• Support interdisciplinary teams to accelerate the real-world implementation of novel, clinically-validated digital health applications and digital therapeutics
• Help Ensure that science-based digital health products reach a sufficient state of maturity to reach a value inflection point
• Give Dartmouth faculty, students, and staff knowledge about the business of digital health and digital therapeutics
• Showcase Dartmouth’s pioneering and wide-reaching research in the science of digital therapeutics
• Grow strategic industry partnerships to commercialize the most potent digital health solutions
