18. How AI used in drug discovery?
Identifying novel interactions
Inferring functional importance of different components of
cellular Pathway
Overcome the challenges of
traditional drug discovery
methods
19. Traditional AI
Target- driven Data-driven
Work well for easily druggable targets
that have a well defined structure and
whose interactions inside the cell are
understood in detail
Complex algorithms and machine
learning can extract meaningful
information from a large data set
Extremely limited due to the complex
nature of cellular interactions& limited
Knowledge of intricate pathways
Identify compounds that could bind to
undruggable targets( proteins whose
structures are not identified)
