Virtual lab powered by ‘AI scientists’ super-charges biomedical research
Could human–AI collaborations be the future of interdisciplinary studies?
The system, described in a preprint posted on bioRxiv last month 1, was able to design antibody fragments called nanobodies that can bind to the virus that causes COVID-19, proposing nearly 100 of these structures in a fraction of the time it would take an all-human research group. “These virtual-lab AI agents have shown to be quite capable at doing a lot of tasks,” says study co-author James Zou, a computational biologist at Stanford University in California.
