Abstract
Digital biomarker researchers have a crucial role to play in ensuring that digital biomarker studies do not perpetuate health inequities across race and socioeconomic status in the United States. This role can be conceptualized as adhering to appropriate standards of social justice. We explore what social justice constitutes in the digital biomarker context and how these standards can be achieved with minimal changes to how digital biomarker research is conducted. These changes can be grouped into three main types corresponding to the types of actions that should be undertaken by digital biomarker researchers during the research process. First, we argue that concrete goals should be set for participant diversity within digital biomarker research. Second, we recommend increased diversity among digital biomarker researchers and/or research advisors. Lastly, the importance of inclusive research locations is considered. We also examine potential inequities related to the distribution of digital biomarker technologies.
