## Summary

\\n

Today on the show I have the pleasure to talk to Elma Dervic. PhD at the Medical University of Vienna where she is applying network science to study patience medical records to identify how correlating deceases evolve over time and individual factors and events contribute to send patience on very different decease progressions. So doctors get a better understanding what treatments to apply in younger patients to reduce the probability of follow up complications when those patients get older; several decades into the future.
