Summary

What the session covered and why it mattered.

A lighter detail template for conference presentations that do not yet have public slides or long-form notes.

This mentee-presented project developed and validated a deep learning model that estimates age from chest X-rays and evaluates the predicted age signal as a biomarker for mortality. The work framed imaging-derived age as a compact, interpretable marker of physiologic risk.
