science

The Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) provides ongoing oversight of the NuVal TM System's scoring engine, the ONQITM algorithm (which is owned and managed by Griffin Hospital), and its applications. Comprised of recognized nutrition and medical experts, many of whom played a key role in the initial development of the ONQITM algorithm, the SAB is responsible for the making timely adjustments to the algorithm as scientific advancements and changes in food supply conditions make appropriate. The SAB also helps coordinate and oversee ongoing scientific testing of the ONQITM algorithm and its influence on health outcomes.
