Patents, Royalties, Other Intellectual Property: I codeveloped intellectual property, an mHealth platform called the Insight™ mHealth Platform (Insight™), in collaboration with D.J.V. (co-author) Michael Businelle and Darla Kendzor (co-author). Insight™ enables researchers to build, test, and launch technology-based mobile health applications that can use ecological momentary assessments (EMA) and sensor data to identify environmental, cognitive, affective, physiological, and behavioral antecedents of health risk behaviors and deliver context-specific Just-in-Time Adaptive interventions (JITAI) in real time. Intellectual property rights to Insight™ are held by the University of Oklahoma Board of Regents. The three of us are entitled to receive licensing revenue from the exploitation of such intellectual property only in instances when there is no involvement of a University of Oklahoma, OUHSC, or Stephenson Cancer Center Investigator. The amount of compensation is very small (generally less than $500 per year per person)
