Using Behavioral Science to Drive Digital Health Engagement and Outcomes

Can we use the science of decision-making to improve health outcomes? Join Aline Holzwarth from the Duke Center for Advanced Hindsight and Nirmish Shah, MD, Assistant Professor in the Department of Pediatrics for an interdisciplinary discussion on patient engagement with apps. We will discuss and learn what the principles of behavioral economics tells us about how to make the right choice easy for people, to what drives users on an individual level to share information about their medical conditions with providers.

HOW MUCH MONEY WILL YOU REALLY NEED IN RETIREMENT?

HOW MUCH MONEY WILL YOU REALLY NEED IN RETIREMENT?

The biggest fear many retirees have is running out of money. I’m joined by Aline Holzworth, a Behavioral Scientist at Duke University, who recently co-authored a Wall Street Journal article on her research to help determine the amount of money you may need in retirement. It’s a surprisingly high percentage of the annual income earned during your working years, and a much larger number than is often used as a rule-of-thumb by many planners. I also explain why it’s necessary to go beyond the numbers to live your best life in retirement.
