My group's HQ in Mountain View is within earshot distance to Google HQ's. We're 
providing assistance and guidance on this project. I believe Stanford 
University is too.

I cannot disclose details, but as the article states, the idea is to use 
algorithms to extrapolate non-ophthalmic information from Fundus Photographs. 
Typical Silicon Valley moonshot project, but very cool.

Fake news or bad science?

Interesting article at link below. Article says images are scans, but the notch 
says otherwise.

Anyone out there participating is such studies?

Richard Press posted about a similar project re diabetes last march.

ALSO — Is Google a sustaining member of OPS?
