Harvard Medical School, Boston, USA
An artificial intelligence (AI)-based method called DRIAD (Drug Repurposing In Alzheimer’s Disease) is used to screen currently available medications as possible treatments for Alzheimer’s disease. According to the researchers, the method could represent a rapid and inexpensive way to repurpose existing therapies into new treatments for the neurodegenerative condition. It could also help reveal new, unexplored targets for therapy by pointing to mechanisms of drug action.
