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.

I am unclear as to how these poor Topcon images would help screen for
stroke
Unless they are referring to H. Plaque, Occlusions, etc and the usual
signs that would send a patient for a Carotid angiogram.
Fake news or bad science?

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

Anyone out there participating is such studies?
Richard Press posted about a similar project re diabetes last march.
