Finding the right medicine to treat conditions like anxiety and depression can be tricky.
Sometimes it takes months of trial and error to find something that works.
It’s an incredibly common issue.
As for how this technology can advance science and medicine, it could take years, if not decades.
And these AI models will likely just speed up actual lab research, not replace it.
But Chan sees a world of possibilities.
However, we still don’t know how the individual pieces come together to form the spaceship.
And when one part doesn’t seem to fit right, that’s where medicine needs to step in.
Can AI speed up biomedical research?
Current research techniques are also slow and expensive in developing new drugs and treatments.
Chan doesn’t suggest eliminating the existing physical “wet laboratory” research.
The models won’t always be correct.
“It’s not going to give us the full answer,” Chan said.
The machines can help scientists find better questions, Chan said.
“It’s going to be the hypothesis generator,” she said.
“Health and medicine, it moves in leaps,” she said.
