What if your genome could tell you exactly what foods to eat to reduce your disease risk? What if AI could decode your DNA, proteomics, and even lifestyle data to craft a personalized health plan? Kari Stefansson and his team at deCODE genetics are turning these possibilities into reality. In an exciting new interview, Kári shares how groundbreaking discoveries—like gene-environment interactions that impact cholesterol based on diet—are shaping the future of precision medicine. 🧬✨ 👉 Did you know a gene variant can increase cholesterol only if you eat oily fish? This is just one of the many insights Kári and his team have uncovered through the study of human diversity 🌟 Join us at PMWC 2025, where Kári will be honored in Track 4 on February 7th for his pioneering work. The Multi-Omics track will feature world-class experts presenting on how omics data is transforming precision medicine, from understanding disease development to advancing patient care: Kathleen C. Barnes (Oxford Nanopore Technologies) will chair a session on the multi-omic characterization of cancer progression w/Orit Rozenblatt-Rosen, (Genentech). Michael Snyder (Stanford) will lead a panel on predicting disease through wearable technologies with Jessilyn Dunn (Duke). Sean Hanlon (NIH/HTAN) will discuss imaging and data strategies in the Human Tumor Atlas Network, bringing powerful visual and data tools into cancer research. Pinaki Sarder (University of Florida/HuBMAP) will share insights on advanced image analysis and data integration in the Human BioMolecular Atlas Program, further illustrating the power of data-driven insights to map human biology at an unprecedented level. Don’t miss out on hearing from Kári Stefánsson and these top experts in genomics, imaging, and multi-omic research! https://lnkd.in/gPtkWZbQ 🔗 Read the full interview https://lnkd.in/ggqD9vgU #PrecisionMedicine #AI #Genomics #MultiOmics #PMWC2025 #HumanTumorAtlasNetwork, #HTAN #HumanBioMolecularAtlasProgram, #HuBMAP Unnur Thorsteinsdottir, Patrick Sulem, Gísli Másson, Daniel Gudbjartsson, Agusta Gudmundsdottir, Stanford Genetics, Valgerdur Steinthorsdottir, Sigrún Helga Lund, Hannes Petersen, Hannes Helgason, Thorunn Asta Olafsdottir, Bjarni Halldorsson, Saedis Saevarsdottir, Gísli Másson, Hreinn Stefansson, Ingileif Jonsdottir, Páll Melsted, Gudmundur Norddahl, Robert Green MD, MPH, Stacey Gabriel, David Altshuler, Chris Walsh, Bruce Korf, Robert Plenge, Sekar (Sek) Kathiresan, Joel Hirschhorn, Daniel Geschwind, Eimear Kenny, Eliezer Van Allen, Steven McCarroll, Manolis Kellis, Misha Angrist, Teri Manolio
