What if a digital twin helped researchers test treatment strategies?
A computer model of a patient could let researchers ask 'what if?' without the risk. How close are we?
What if an AI model discovered a promising drug target?
AI can sift biology faster than any lab. Finding a target is the start of the story, not the end.
What if we could detect a cancer before symptoms appeared?
