The Data Lake Benefits Panel is Live!

Big milestone for the Data Lake: our study has just been published in the peer-reviewed journal Diagnostics 🎉 The study — “Analyzing the Gaps in Breast Cancer Diagnostics in Poland—A Retrospective Observational Study in the Data Donation Model” — is one of the first peer-reviewed proofs of how patient-driven data donation can be used to uncover real-world healthcare challenges. 587 breast cancer cases analyzed  Patient data voluntarily donated to power the research  Key finding: while first oncology consultations were timely, delays of 3+ months emerged before surgery and treatment, revealing systemic gaps  In short: patients shared their data → researchers with the help of Data Lake mapped delays → policymakers now have evidence to fix bottlenecks.   Why It Matters for Data Lake 🌊 This is more than an academic milestone. It’s validation of the data donation model we’ve been building since day one, where we proven: Patients are willing to share their data for science, provided adequate safety and trust measures are in place. It’s possible to get access to large patient populations (20k+ data donors) working with decentralized science tools, outside of traditional academia and public research financing. Time for citizen scientists to shine! Real-world data studies can

We’re thrilled to announce that the Spinediana Quest—the second research campaign on LAKE.fun—has officially launched! Launched in collaboration with SpineDAO, this groundbreaking initiative calls on the global community to uncover forgotten, historical, and traditional medical knowledge in the field of spine care—and contribute it to CHRONOS, an AI-powered knowledge graph designed to generate new hypotheses and insights in spinal medicine. And yes—you’ll be rewarded for your discoveries.   💰 A 500,000 $LAKE Bounty Awaits Starting June 25 at 15:00 CET, participants will have 2 months to take part in this unique challenge. A total bounty of 500,000 $LAKE tokens has been allocated to reward the most valuable contributions—documents that provide meaningful inputs to the CHRONOS AI system. Whether it’s an Ayurvedic scroll, a forgotten PhD dissertation, or a rare academic publication—you now have the opportunity to turn lost knowledge into future medical breakthroughs.   🧪 What Is CHRONOS? Developed by SpineDAO, CHRONOS is a next-generation AI agent designed to process both modern clinical data and traditional medical insights. Its purpose? 🔍 Recontextualize knowledge long ignored by modern science 🧠 Discover novel connections in spine care 💡 Inspire new clinical hypotheses for AI and researchers to explore With your help, CHRONOS
