AI virtual cell uses protein dynamics to predict personalized breast cancer treatments

Not all cancer cells are the same, and neither are their responses to drugs. Finding the right drug for the right cancer cell is a long battle in drug development and in designing effective treatments. A new AI tool called ProteinTalks makes this task easier by accurately predicting whether a drug will be effective against a cancer cell line, finding new drug combinations and identifying proteins linked to drug resistance.
