ArticleMaking science run at the speed of thought: the reality of AI in drug discovery – Part 1
Everyone talks about AI speeding up drug discovery, but Eric Ma explains why, without clean data and statistical discipline, it can actually do the opposite.
-
ArticleDeep data not big data
Bigger isn’t always better. In drug discovery, Dr Michael Ritchie argues that the future belongs not to those with the most data, but to those who understand its biological depth.
-
ArticleAI and the future of biomarker analysis in early R&D
AI is transforming biomarker analysis in early drug discovery, revealing hidden biological patterns that improve target discovery, patient selection and trial design for more precise and predictive R&D.
