Artificial intelligence helping scientists in fight against superbug and breast cancer | Science & Tech News
Artificial intelligence has been used to identify a new antibiotic capable of killing a type of bacteria responsible for many drug-resistant infections.
The new antibiotic was identified by researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology and McMaster University from a library of nearly 7,000 potential drug compounds.
The researchers used a machine-learning model they had trained to assess whether a chemical compound would inhibit the growth of acinetobacter baumannii.
James Collins, from MIT’s Institute for Medical Engineering and Science and Department of Biological Engineering, said the research supports the idea that “AI can significantly accelerate and expand our search for novel antibiotics”.
