Artificial intelligence and machine learning are being embedded in every aspect of the drug discovery and development process. In the preclinical stages, for example, companies are using advanced AI ...

Discovering effective drug combinations may now be easier thanks to a screening platform made public today by St. Jude Children's Research Hospital scientists. Many diseases, including cancers, ...

The drug development pipeline is a costly and lengthy process. Identifying high-quality "hit" compounds-those with high potency, selectivity, and favorable metabolic properties-at the earliest stages ...

How are we improving the way the field of drug discovery creates machine learning algorithms to predict a protein’s interactions with a small molecule? The drug development pipeline is a costly and ...

Artificial intelligence algorithms have now been combined with traditional laboratory methods to uncover promising drug leads against human enterovirus 71 (EV71), the pathogen behind most cases of ...

After uncovering a unifying algorithm that links more than 20 common machine-learning approaches, researchers organized them into a 'periodic table of machine learning' that can help scientists ...

When a quantum computer processes data, it must translate it into understandable quantum data. Algorithms that carry out this 'quantum compilation' typically optimize one target at a time. However, a ...
