In an unrelated study, the Viterbi School of Engineering at the University of Southern California created an AI framework that can significantly speed-up the analysis of COVID vaccine candidates and also find the best preventative medical therapies.
AI and machine-learning techniques are becoming crucial to the speed of drug development.
This comes at a time when more and more COVID mutations are emerging, bringing existing vaccine efficiencies into question.
This team was led by Caroline Uhler,…
