What is the relationship between ageing and disease ?
Whilst the FDA and NHS do not recognise chronological ageing in itself as a disease, we increasingly are able to recognise changing values of biological markers that correlate with progressive age – so called biological clocks.
“If BIOLOGICAL AGE IS GREATER THAN CHRONOLOGICAL AGE There is problem”
These biological markers however vary individually with other factors such as illness, and drugs, and across populations from different world regions. Hence using them individually to predict age is unreliable. But, by combining measures of a broad range of these biological markers which reflect many bodily functions, in a machine learning and AI computing platform, allows us to elicit data patterns which reliably predict age. Importantly where we have the knowledge of a subjects age but a ‘pattern’ which disagrees we can ask if the biological clocks are implying that the longevity of the subject is at risk.
