Timing is Everything: ISB Study Finds Link Between Bowel Movement Frequency and Overall Health

Timing is Everything: ISB Study Finds Link Between Bowel Movement Frequency and Overall Health

Everybody poops, but not every day. An ISB-led research team examined the clinical, lifestyle, and multi-omic data of more than 1,400 healthy adults. How often people poop, they found, can have a large influence on one’s physiology and health.

Disarming a Hidden Killer: Predicting – and Preventing – C. diff Before It Strikes

Disarming a Hidden Killer: Predicting – and Preventing – C. diff Before It Strikes

Researchers at ISB have developed personalized models to predict C. diff colonization risk and test targeted probiotics. This approach could prevent infection before it starts and paves the way for precision microbiome therapies tailored to individual gut ecosystems.

This circular workflow illustrates how personalized medicine is applied using the mmSYGNAL model. Starting with molecular profiling of a new patient, data are mapped to the mmSYGNAL network — originally built from a large patient cohort — and integrated with our MM knowledge base to generate a patient-specific disease network map. This map supports risk prediction and therapy matching, which are synthesized by a Clinical Decision Support Service to provide actionable insights for the treating physician, enabling tailored and informed treatment decisions.
