As far as Bloomberg reports. Her father is hinted as being a heart surgeon ("given her father's specialty") but it's never explicitly pointed out in the article.

She's obviously extremely intelligent—and I have no qualms with a 14 yo getting some hints from their parents for a project idea—but the article seems designed to sensationalise an issue that has long existed.

"Apple story == page views".

Dad is a cardiac electrophysiologist.

So dad's a heart doctor. Mine's a digital electronics engineer. No wonder my science fair projects favored computers and her's heart health.
