$Image: Mass General Brigham researchers developed two AI tools from one foundation model (called FAHR-Face) that can estimate biological age and predict cancer survival outcomes from a single face photo. The image on the left depicts the features most important to FAHR-FaceSurvival\'s predictions of cancer survival outcomes, while the image on the right shows the features most important to FAHR-FaceAge\'s estimates of biological age. Areas shown in yellow had the greatest influence on each model\'s predictions. (Photo courtesy of Mass General Brigham/Lancet Digital Health)$

$Image: Purdue University physicist David Nolte is developing a biodynamic imaging system that could improve the care of cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Nolte\'s system can rapidly evaluate the outcome of different chemotherapy drugs on patient biopsies (obtained during diagnosis), which could ensure patients get the chemotherapy treatment that would be most effective on their specific tumor. Right now, the system is being used at the Indiana University School of Medicine to evaluate the impact of experimental chemotherapy drugs on tumor cells derived from more than 30 osteosarcoma patients. It has also been used in clinical and preclinical trials. (IMage Credit: Purdue University/Kelsey Lefever)$
