Abstract

Recent advances in our ability to collect and process information, particularly through artificial intelligence, opens up some exciting possibilities for understanding interorgan communication and treating conditions that arise from that communication breaking down. We describe a vision of a digital twin of interorgan communication that will give us a testbed for virtually researching, teaching and searching treatments, greatly increasing our capabilities to understand and manage the complex interactions in our bodies.
