For older adults, hydration, regularity and early signals are central to independence and wellbeing.

What counts as a biomarker

For older adults, hydration, regularity and early signals are central to independence and wellbeing. In practice, a biomarker is useful when it is measurable, repeatable and connected to action.

Explainable AI should show which marker moved, over what time window, and why the change may matter.

Using the output well

The best result is faster conversations grounded in objective trends: clear context, not a diagnosis or a panic-inducing score.
