We've all seen or even built mobile apps that track personal wellness, from physical activity to happiness to stress. But can we design tech that fosters resilience? Resilience, the ability to persevere through life’s challenges, is an innate human capacity. Mobile tech that builds personal resilience is the next frontier for consumer health technologies.

Fred Dillon, Director of Product Development at HopeLab gives an overview of research on the psychological and biological components of resilience, followed by the presentation of case studies and development strategies on how insights from science can be applied to building mobile apps and technologies that support human resilience and help us flourish.
