Application of artificial intelligence (AI) in drug design

School
BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES

We have around 170 million registered small molecules in the world. These small molecules potentially can interact with around 20,000 protein targets available in human body to modify their biological function and hopefully cure diseases. However, due to large search space, discover the right compound that bind to the right protein target is a daunting task. In recent years, using artificial intelligence (AI) has been successfully applied in almost every stage of the drug discovery project to speed up the process of research and reduce the cost and risk of failure. In this talk we will discuss potential applications of AI in different stages ...
