ArticleWhy AI models need patient data to deliver in drug discovery
Despite rapid advances in AI, many drug discovery models still struggle to translate computational predictions into clinical outcomes. Thomas Clozel explains how Owkin is training AI on large-scale patient-derived data while integrating experimental and clinical validation directly into model development.

ArticleTurning GWAS signals into drug targets with scalable CRISPR
Genome-wide association studies have linked thousands of genetic variants to disease, yet most remain disconnected from drug-relevant biology. Neville Sanjana, Professor at New York University and Core Faculty Member at the New York Genome Center, explains how scalable CRISPR screens systematically link noncoding variants to causal genes and therapeutic targets.

NewsMachine learning identifies five distinct Parkinson’s disease subtypes
A new study from VIB and KU Leuven has revealed that Parkinson’s disease comprises five distinct molecular subtypes, each requiring tailored therapeutic approaches.
-
ArticleThe scale divide: competing strategies in AI drug discovery
Two approaches to AI in preclinical drug discovery are diverging, from multi-thousand GPU systems to models with only a handful of parameters, with early results raising questions about which will deliver.
-
NewsAI tool reveals DNA exists in partially open states
Researchers have discovered that DNA wrapped around nucleosomes exists in multiple partially open states rather than simply locked or accessible configurations.
