AlphaFold – AI breakthrough unfolding a new path for Protein Research

Recently, on the 30th of November, 2020, a new milestone in Protein Research was achieved when the results of the 14th biennial Critical Assessment of Protein Structure Prediction (CASP) challenge were announced. AlphaFold – a program developed by DeepMind, an Artificial Intelligence research lab affiliated with Google and its parent company was successful in predicting protein structure from its amino acid sequence comparable with the experimental results with a GDT score of 92.4.

Data Science in Healthcare Industry

Medicine and healthcare are two of the most important components of our lives. Traditionally, medicine and medical advice was given solely by the doctors based on the patient’s symptoms. However, this was not always accurate and was prone to errors. With the advancements in the field of data science, it is now possible to obtain a more accurate diagnosis. The AI is being used not only as a tool for diagnosis but also for break through discoveries. In a latest advancement Google has achieved a huge success in unfolding protein structures. The very core of the problem that many biologist were trying to solve from many decades!
