BTB reflects a partnership between a university research center and a senior center with each contributing to the plan and execution of the study and model design while preserving internal validity and control of a randomized trial.
The robustness of the results also preserves the validity of the NPA approach against the possibility of HYPs and network models evolving slightly due to the constantly improving understanding of the biological processes they describe.
