What Happens To All Those COVID Test Nasal Swabs? That’s Where It Gets Complicated.
March 17, 2021USC
In early 2020, as the world watched in horror at the spread of COVID-19, Manoj Gopalkrishnan experienced a sense of déjà vu.
A little more than a decade earlier, Gopalkrishnan, Ph.D. CS ’08, had lived through the swine flu pandemic. Then, as now, Gopalkrishnan noted that an acute shortage of testing made it difficult for countries to fully assess the health crises they faced. That’s especially true with COVID because of the large number of asymptomatic carriers.
In the early days of COVID, a shortage of testing kits and chemical reagents made it nearly impossible for many people around the world, including Americans, to obtain a screening. That led to symptomatic and asymptomatic carriers spreading the virus largely unchecked. When the number of available COVID tests finally increased, that caused a whole new host of problems. Anxious patients sometimes had to wait up t
Insilico Medicine discovers novel preclinical candidate to address idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
Insilico Medicine has demonstrated a breakthrough in Artificial Intelligence ( AI ) and drug discovery linking together generative chemistry and biology for the first time to discover a novel preclinical candidate addressing idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis ( IPF ) and be validated with multiple human cell and animal model experiments.
Often found implicated in a wide range of diseases and multiple organs such as lung, liver and kidney, IPF addresses a very broad medical need that affects hundreds of thousands of individuals worldwide.
The pinnacle of the deep learning revolution can be pinged to 2014 when deep learning systems accelerated by NVIDIA GPUs and AI software started outperforming humans in image recognition and generative adversarial networks were invented. It is also the year when we started the company. In 2016 we demonstrated that a deep learning system can identify a n
