Advances in computing capability offer the biomedical research community the prospect of creating simulations at a previously unimaginable scale. A diagnostic analysis of the underpinnings of the translational dilemma suggests that the current high-throughput, data-rich research environment has led to an imbalance in the relationship between determinations of correlation and the evaluation of causality. Here I describe the use of high-performance computing technologies to facilitate high-throughput hypothesis evaluation combined with an evolutionary paradigm for the advancement of scientific knowledge. This combination provides a roadmap for closing the scientific loop between correlation and causality, a necessary step if translational endeavors are to succeed.

Summary: Digital twins, customized simulation models pioneered in industry, are being applied in medicine and healthcare with major successes. However, developing digital twins of the immune system presents challenges due to its complexity and measurement difficulties. This article outlines a roadmap for meeting these challenges and building a prototype of an immune digital twin.
