AI Tool Outperforms Google Rival at 3 D RNA Shape Prediction
1+ hour, 38+ min ago (402+ words) Researchers have developed AI tool to rival the behemoth of Google's Alphafold 3 in predicting 3 D shapes in RNA using less data. RNAbp FLow could shed new light on the RNA conformational dynamics that underpin diverse cellular processes. It could also…...
AI Tool Classifies 102 CNS Tumor Subtypes in Minutes
2+ week, 5+ day ago (278+ words) The study shows that artificial intelligence is capable of deriving molecular information directly from routine tissue sections and thus fundamentally changing cancer diagnostics," said lead author Darui Jin, Ph D, a postdoctoral fellow at DKFZ. An important element of the…...
AI Foundation Model Maps Tumor Mutations to Predict Cancer Therapy Response
1+ mon, 2+ day ago (730+ words) The study, led by researchers at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) and published in Cancer Discovery, describes how the model was trained on more than 30, 000 tumor genomes spanning 10 solid tumor types and then applied to a range of…...
AI Model Predicts Alzheimer's Progression from a Single MRI Scan
1+ mon, 1+ week ago (633+ words) Alzheimer's disease accounts for approximately 60% to 70% of dementia cases worldwide. Although structural brain changes and cognitive decline are hallmarks of the disease, accurately forecasting who will develop progressive impairment remains difficult. MRI scans are among the most widely available clinical…...
AI Can Help Increase Donor Heart Matches, Reducing Organ Discard
2+ mon, 1+ week ago (454+ words) Integrating artificial intelligence (AI) tools into transplant infrastructure could save a significant amount of available donor hearts from being discarded, according to research presented at the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation (ISHLT) 46th Annual Meeting and Scientific Sessions. "There…...

AI Tool Evaluates Pathology Slides to Guide Chemotherapy Decisions in Breast Cancer
3+ mon, 4+ day ago (289+ words) These are complex biological signals that the human eye cannot consistently quantify," said first author Gil Shamai, Ph D, a postdoctoral researcher at Technion. The model integrates many subtle cues to generate a score that reflects both recurrence risk and…...
AI Model Predicts Telomere Length from Routine Biopsy Images
3+ mon, 2+ week ago (562+ words) Developed by investigators at Sanford Burnham Prebys, the model demonstrates how computational pathology may unlock new biological insights from imaging data already generated in clinical care. Telomeres are repetitive DNA sequences that cap the ends of chromosomes, protecting genetic material…...
Machine Learning Flags Cell Transplantation Risks
4+ mon, 1+ week ago (547+ words) An artificial intelligence tool can identify potential complications after bone marrow or stem cell transplantation before symptoms arise, which could allow for more accurate monitoring of patients and pre-emptive treatment. The BIOPREVENT algorithm combines machine learning with immune biomarkers and…...
AI-Driven Large Language Models Susceptible to Medical Misinformation
4+ mon, 2+ week ago (383+ words) Research led by Mount Sinai Health System shows artificial intelligence (AI)-based large language models (LLMs) remain susceptible to medical misinformation, particularly if it is phrased in language that implies it comes from a medical expert. "AI has the potential…...
