Mount Sinai's "Lab 100" is a clinic with eight stations that test everything from strength to brain health.We gave it a try earlier this month ahead of the official launch in the fall.
I arrived on a Thursday afternoon and greeted immediately by a physician -- in this case, the pediatric neurologist David Stark. Dr. Stark told me right away that it wouldn't feel like a "normal experience." He was right about that. My balance isn't terrible, but there's definitely some room for improvement. I do a lot of cardio, but neglect core-strengthening activities like yoga and pilates. So Dr. Stark suggested that I mix up my workout routine, as having a strong core will prove beneficial as I get older.
There were a few instances where Dr. Stark told me that he wasn't confident in the results. And he suggested that we redo the test. As medical experts know, not every test is guaranteed to be totally accurate. There's always a risk of a false positive, or false negative result -- so the best doctors are trained to avoid getting a patient overly concerned or reassured by a data point that seems off.

Is that a woman or a robot in this video? If that’s a real woman, she’s had more done to her face than Joan Rivers. She can’t even move her cheeks.
Sounds great. Hopefully they can continue to work on it and ya e it fully functional.
Nice. Can I view my bloated liver in 3D?
