AI discovers blood biomarkers from private health data using privacy-preserving tool

Researchers have developed a novel scoring tool that enables AI agents to discover potential blood biomarkers from private health records without compromising patient privacy. The tool, trained on data from over 5.4 million patients at Clalit Health Services, uses a graph attention network to predict the Area Under the Curve (AUC) for candidate biomarker expressions. This privacy-preserving method allows AI agents to refine biomarker hypotheses, leading to a median improvement of 4.18 AUC percentage points in external validation and outperforming existing research tools in identifying promising candidates.

    Agentic discovery of blood biomarker from distilled private health records

    Routine complete blood counts (CBCs) could yield new biomarkers, but the private records needed to evaluate candidates cannot be shared with frontier language model agents that excel at discovery. We distilled the evidence held in the Clalit Health Services panel of over 5.4 mill…
