One of my first consults as a cardiology fellow: a 34-year-old, textbook MI. A day earlier, no risk model would have flagged him for prevention. That paradox has driven my work ever since — our models miss how disease actually evolves, dynamically, on top of a genetic background. @Nature https://t.co/PHDOjmGxE3
Accurately predicting an individual's health arc is a dream that has not been previously possible. Now we're headed there, thanks to a new @nature paper by @tigerstatdoc and team. Our conversation and annotations in the new Ground Truths

Very exciting new method for inferring latent disease trajectories, led by the tireless Dr. Urbut with Natarajan and Parmigiani labs. If you're considering a postdoc in this area talk to Sarah!
