Why Is Drug Discovery Moving Faster Than Ever?
at 2:19
Answer
Nworah Ayogu said that, more so than at maybe any other time in history, the frontier of science and the frontier of what has been accomplished is moving faster than ever. The explosion of artificial intelligence and drug discovery is changing the way drugs will be delivered and made, and the change will also run through the entire value chain.
Artificial intelligence labs already sent needs around compute, memory, and energy through the entire supply chain. Biotech will follow the same path, and the path is not just drug discovery. It will be manufacturing, development, how clinical trials are done, and commercialization. N of 1 medicine is the ability to create a customized treatment for an individual and to treat conditions that could not be treated before. Customized treatments have already occurred and have already had an effect, with more of them still to come. The remaining marker is an intersection between hardware and biotech that unlocks treatments people could not unlock before. Neuralink and Fortel are two of the companies named, and the problems they are solving, plus the capabilities they allow, are almost biblical in proportion.
