  • [#6885] - In 1.5.5, data from devices wasn't attaching to enrollment steps. It is fixed.

  • [#6800] - We added a page to the Kessler medstudy with recruitment info about the study
  • [#6878] - For the Way to Safety study, we rearranged some items on the participant dashboard
  • [#6879] - For the Way to Safety study, after a participant completed the last enrollment step they couldn't see the post-step information since their status was started and enrollment was blocked. We unblocked enrollment views from started participants.
  • [#6887] - After the Core site was switched to 1.5.5, MedSignals data wasn't downloading. There was a bug in the MedSignals connector, which we fixed.
