Artificial Intelligence and Biological Sciences

Advancements of AI in medical and biological sciences have opened new ways for drug development. Novel therapeutic molecules and their target action can be easily predicted and can be modified. AI helps in disease detection and diagnosis faster. The breakthrough of AI is made especially in the area of personalized precision medicine, host-pathogen interaction and predictive epidemiology. These approaches could help in faster decision-making with minimal errors that can improve risk analysis, especially disease diagnosis and selecting treatment strategy. In agricultural practices, an exact combination of fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, soil management, water requirement analysis, yield prediction and overall crop management can be modified by implementing AI interventions. AI could provide a better improvement in agriculture, medical research, pharmaceuticals and bio-based industries for a sustainable life. The key features of this book are: AI in medical Sciences, biotechnology and drug discovery; Application of AI in Digital Pathology, cytology and bioinformatics; Overview of AI, Machine Learning and Deep Learning; Impact of Artificial Intelligence in Society; Artificial Intelligence in Pharmacovigilance; and Ethics in Artificial Intelligence. The volume aims to comprehensively cover the application of AI in biological sciences. It is a collection of contributions from different authors who have several years of experience in their specific areas. The book will be useful for pharma companies, CROs, product developers, students, researchers, academicians, policymakers and practitioners.
