Long-term complications in the aging population

Lay summary

This research project aims to use artificial intelligence (AI) and retinal imaging to predict long-term health outcomes. The retina, the part of the eye that allows us to see, can provide valuable information about a person's overall health. By combining high-resolution images of the retina with AI, we can analyze large amounts of data and identify early signs of diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, and heart problems. The goal of this research is to improve the accuracy and efficiency of disease prediction, leading to earlier detection and treatment and a better quality of life for those affected. This research has the potential to transform the way healthcare is delivered and benefit society as a whole.
