​​This Month's Topic: Measuring Good Health in a Technology-Rich World

​What does “good health” really mean in a world full of apps, wearables, wellness trends, and constant data? Join us for a fast‑paced MIX session exploring how foundational health habits, personal intuition, and modern technology shape our understanding of well‑being.

​This event features 5‑minute lightning talks from UC Davis Betty Irene School of Nursing students and industry speakers working to make wellness easier and more accessible. Together, they’ll cover foundational public health advice alongside the cutting edge of health (think: wearable health monitors) and help us consider how to navigate the balance between trusting your body and trusting your data.

​Expect quick insights, practical takeaways, and a lively conversation about how we cut through the noise and get a clearer picture of what “good health” looks like today.

​Perfect for: students, community members, health professionals, and anyone curious about the future of wellness.
