{"id":121,"name":"Thomas Lewis Ph.D.","url":"","description":"Dr. Lewis holds a Ph.D. from MIT and continuing education from the Harvard School of Public Health. Following his dad\u2019s diagnosis of Alzheimer\u2019s 20 years ago, he has dedicated his life to determining how to better predict Alzheimer\u2019s and chronic diseases in general. Working with key clinicians at Harvard Medical School, his team developed advanced AI-driven algorithms to predict a person\u2019s mortality risk in both the near and distant future. Part of this algorithm is the predictive capability for major chronic diseases. He has coined this diagnostic protocol \u201c4-Dimensions of Health\u201d because the measurements span 4 dimensions: risks and other determinants of health, physiology, pathology, and existing disease states. All these measurements are designed to properly place anyone on a health-disease continuum. The final feature of his program are robust protocols to help a person reduce their disease risk and burden, the success of which is measure across the 4 dimensions. Lastly, he designed this program with both individuals and populations in mind because all testing is widely available, often on-line, and very affordable. His continued mission is to build this testing into the standard-of-care as a replacement for the existing \u201csick care\u201d approach with a new, true \u201chealth care\u201d approach.","link":"https:\/\/www.oraldna.com\/trends-in-salivary-testing\/index.php\/author\/thomas-lewis-ph-d\/","slug":"thomas-lewis-ph-d","avatar_urls":{"24":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/88d870cfc2497c90d385a29733448c9b?s=24&d=mm&r=g","48":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/88d870cfc2497c90d385a29733448c9b?s=48&d=mm&r=g","96":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/88d870cfc2497c90d385a29733448c9b?s=96&d=mm&r=g"},"meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.oraldna.com\/trends-in-salivary-testing\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/121"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.oraldna.com\/trends-in-salivary-testing\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users"}]}}
