Résumé
The purpose of this project is to develop a computer model to predict the risk of death, disease and disability from personal information such as age, gender, and various risk factors, such as diet, smoking, alcohol consumption, physical activity, occupational hazards, and other data. The model will be used to help health professionals and lay people to identify and predict the impact of interventions to reduce their individual risk of disease and disability.
