Harvard AI Tool Ranks Disease Targets 35% Higher, Processes Data 25× Faster Than Competitors

Harvard Medical School researchers have created a new AI tool that could transform how doctors treat Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and even cancer. The system, called PDGrapher, works by finding the exact genes and drug combinations that might push diseased cells back to a healthy state. Unlike traditional drug discovery methods that test one target at a time, PDGrapher looks at the bigger picture. It maps the complex connections between genes and proteins to identify multiple targets that together could reverse disease. “Traditional drug discovery resembles tasting hundreds of prepared dishes to find one that happens to taste perfect,” explained Marinka Zitnik, … Continue reading Harvard AI Tool Ranks Disease Targets 35% Higher, Processes Data 25× Faster Than Competitors
