The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $238,884 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to the University of South Florida (USF) to assess the efficacy of digital health technologies in delivering healthcare services in low-resource and rural settings. The research project addresses key questions around how these digital health technologies impact patient-provider communication, treatment experiences, and perceptions of treatment effectiveness. The study employs in-depth interviews and behavioral observations to examine these issues across a sample of healthcare providers, patients, and their family members. The project provides training opportunities for graduate students, postdoctoral scholars, and undergraduates, while also enhancing research and educational infrastructure. The award period runs from April 1, 2025 to March 31, 2027, and no sub-awards are planned under this grant.
