We must prioritize their right to good health and optimal nutrition\, but current research approaches have fallen short of meeting their needs. In Australia\, 9 out of 10 young people fail to consume a healthy\, well-balanced diet or engage in sufficient physical activity. This places them at a heightened risk of developing serious health issues like obesity and mental health problems. \nDigital technology influences adolescent health decisions and potentially damages and enhances their lifestyle behaviours and health outcomes. This presentation will discuss the double-edged sword of technology and strategies to prevent chronic diseases among adolescents. \nAbout Dr Partridge\nDr Stephanie Partridge is a Senior Research Fellow and National Heart Foundation Future Leader Fellow at the University of Sydney. Her research is focused on harnessing digital technology to improve the lifestyle behaviours of adolescents to keep them healthy and productive throughout their life. Her research is centred on digital health and strongly focuses on research translation. She applies an adolescent rights approach to her research by incorporating direct adolescent participation and research co-production. \nExplore past seminars\nAll MRC Epidemiology Unit seminars and events where slides\, audio or video are available can be found at www.mrc-epid.cam.ac.uk/past-seminars/ \nSign up for future seminars\nTo sign up for future seminars and/or other alerts please visit www.mrc-epid.cam.ac.uk/subscribe/
