Excited to share a milestone published in @NatureMedicine from our decade-long effort to build The Human Phenotype Project, a unique longitudinal cohort with unmatched depth of clinical and multi-omic profiling, enabling truly predictive, personalized medicine.

Led together with @ericxing, it is a global collaboration between @WeizmannScience, @MBZUAI, and Japanese partners, spanning 30,000+ participants and continuing to grow internationally

By devising AI models trained on individuals deeply profiled with genetics, microbiome, glucose, sleep, bone density, and more, we can now forecast diseases before symptoms appear and simulate treatment or lifestyle outcomes.

Key findings:
• Re-defined metabolic risk thresholds
• Predicted menopause impact via biological aging
• Mapped organ-specific aging trajectories
• Developed models for early detection of diabetes & heart disease

This dataset is a blueprint for digital health twins, AI-driven tools grounded in real-world, longitudinal data

Really excited that our curatedFoodMetagenomicData resource is out in @CellCellPress! 2,500 food metagenomes and their link with the human microbiome. Thanks to first author Niccolò Carlino, @nsegata @pauldcotter @DaniloErcolini and all @MASTER_IA_H2020 colleagues

What is important for long term survivors after CAR T cell therapy? More and more patients are several years out from this amazing therapy. How should we manage them? In https://t.co/7XRKWnxgOJ we report on 5 year outcomes of standard of care lymphoma patients. 🧵

Chemotherapy is still the major backbone of therapy against pancreatic cancer. But now it’s time to think about microbiome and chemotherapy, a heavily ignored interaction. See our comprehensive thoughts on this topic lead by ⁦@julicast80⁩ and team! https://t.co/la3CG8PMPw
