ENSURE, a 16-week course for undergraduate students, graduate students, and postdoctoral researchers, brings together multidisciplinary teams of undergraduates, graduate students, and postdocs to prototype new technologies that address mental health challenges responsibly and equitably. Trainees will be recruited from engineering, data science, medicine, business, arts & social sciences, policy, ethics, and law. The main output of the course will be actual interventions, applications, and/or ‘paper protypes’ that teams develop. Apart from the prototypes, the anticipated outcome of this proposal is a robust library of resources that will provide a comprehensive “playbook” for other organizations to use as a guide to offering their own version of ENSURE.
