Project Details
Description
This project is part of the SHELF (Sustainable and Healthy Lifestyles) initiative, funded by a start package grant from the Novo Nordisk Foundation.
The research holds strong scientific relevance, potentially significantly advancing the assessment of healthy and sustainable lifestyles using a Machine Learning (ML) approach. It involves developing and applying ML techniques to systematically explore the complex relationships between multiple co-determinants and health status, analyzing interactions among dietary exposures, chemicals in products, behavioral patterns, and physiological indicators.
A key project component is creating a digital platform to promote healthy lifestyles. The goal is to comprehensively analyze and visually represent the cumulative impact of various determinants on health, focusing on changes in life expectancy.
Ultimately, the project aims to generate valuable insights into the key drivers of healthy lifestyles. Doing so seeks to support precision health and nutrition, empowering individuals to make informed decisions about their health and lifestyles.

Layman's description
We aim to answer big-picture questions like:
- How many years of healthy life are we gaining or losing because of the way we live?
- What changes can we make to improve our chances of living longer, healthier lives?
