A key component of NTT’s long-term goal to individualize and revolutionize healthcare is through NTT Research’s bio digital twin initiative, which seeks to address the increasing complexity of underlying diseases while helping to determine the best current remedies from among an ever-increasing range of therapeutic options. Led by Dr. Joe Alexander, who was recently named the director of the Medical & Health Informatics (MEI) Lab, the development of the bio digital twin is informed by a vast array of biological, physiological, genomic, phenotypic and health records data – as well as data gleaned from wearable devices and sensors.
“NTT aims to change the future for good by reimagining Health and Wellbeing,” said Kazuhiro Gomi, President and CEO of NTT Research. “Fundamental research is at the center of this change and our MEI Lab’s vision to facilitate improved health outcomes by empowering the application of a personalized, preventative, predictive and participatory practice of medicine strongly aligns with the goals of NTT’s Health and Wellbeing initiative.”
