New paper from the Tanay lab on longevity is out today in @NatureAging! We employ machine learning to tackle a classical question: What makes some people live long, healthy lives, other than the fact that they are not sick with any chronic disease? https://t.co/4j6D1OHsEX (1/17)
We are also excited to follow-up on the features our model uses to distinguish excellent longevity potential from just good potential. For example, understanding the dynamics of neutrophil/lymphocyte in the blood, or deciphering the meaning of different alk-phos levels. (16/17)
So it took a lot of time – but finally our comprehensive paper on breast cancer epigenetics is out! It is a joint work of the @Caldaslab and Amos Tanay Lab, with @rnbatra and more:

And assuming we can enhance the historical normal/abnormal models for lab interpretation - perhaps this can help us to start relaxing the current dichotomy of health and disease states today in research, tomorrow in the clinic?
In conclusion we must ask: when will physicians enjoy interpretation of “normal” lab values that takes full advantage of what modern data can offer them?
