and therapeutic value. This project involves deep profiling of participants through comprehensive data collection on medical history, lifestyle and nutritional habits, vitals, anthropometrics, blood tests, continuous glucose and sleep monitoring, and multi-omic molecular profiling, including genetics, transcriptomics, microbiomics, metabolomics, and immune system markers. The division leverages this data and advanced AI, medical, and computational models to generate insights into disease mechanisms, identifying novel biomarkers and developing state-of-the-art predictive models for disease onset and progression. These models are translated into personalized prevention strategies and innovative therapeutic interventions. Research areas of interest include, but not limited to:

• Computational and Systems Biology
• Medical and Health Informatics
• Personalized Medicine
• Foundation AI Models
• Multi-omics and Integrative Data Analysis
• Population-level Cohort and EHR Analysis
• Epidemiology
• Pandemics
• Biomedical Imaging

Faculty joining the division will have full access to unique datasets, including the Human Phenotype Project, enabling innovative research that pushes the boundaries of precision medicine. Another flagship project, the Emirati Genome Project (EGP), is a national initiative to map the UAE population’s genetic profile, enabling personalized and preventive healthcare through advanced genomic research.
