Apple and GlaxoSmithKline Team Up for an Arthritis Study

In March of last year, Apple created the ResearchKit, a medical platform which turns the iPhone into a diagnostic tool for clinical trials and studies. It allows companies wishing to perform trials to team up easily with those wishing to participate. Recently, GlaxoSmithKline announced itself as the first ever partner for the clinical trials, as it will be conducting a study on rheumatoid arthritis.
