Vision for the 12 LABOURS Digital Twin Platform.

Clinical translation of personalised computational physiology workflows and digital twins can revolutionise healthcare by providing a better understanding of an individual's physiological processes and any changes that could lead to serious health consequences. However, the lack of common infrastructure for developing these workflows and digital twins has hampered the realisation of this vision. The Auckland Bioengineering Institute's 12 LABOURS project aims to address these challenges by developing a Digital Twin Platform to enable researchers to develop and personalise computational physiology models to an individual's health data in clinical workflows. This will allow clinical trials to be more efficiently conducted to demonstrate the efficacy of these personalised clinical workflows. We present a demonstration of the platform's capabilities using publicly available data and an existing automated computational physiology workflow developed to assist clinicians with diagnosing and treating breast cancer. We also demonstrate how the platform facilitates the discovery and exploration of data and the presentation of workflow results as part of clinical reports through a web portal. Future developments will involve integrating the platform with health systems and remote-monitoring devices such as wearables and implantables to support home-based healthcare. Integrating outputs from multiple workflows that are applied to the same individual's health data will also enable the generation of their personalised digital twin.Clinical Relevance- The proposed 12 LABOURS Digital Twin Platform will enable researchers to 1) more efficiently conduct clinical trials to assess the efficacy of their computational physiology workflows and support the clinical translation of their research; 2) reuse primary and derived data from these workflows to generate novel workflows; and 3) generate personalised digital twins by integrating the outputs of different computational physiology workflows.
