About the Division

The Biological and Life Sciences Division at Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence (MBZUAI) in Abu Dhabi is at the forefront of research at the intersection of Genomics, Multi‑Omics, Personalized Medicine, Precision Therapeutics, Epidemiology, and Artificial Intelligence (AI). A key initiative within the division is the Human Phenotype Project, a groundbreaking, large‑scale longitudinal cohort and biobank designed to identify novel molecular markers with diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic value. The 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. Leveraging this data with advanced AI, medical, and computational models, the division gen...
