Artificial Intelligence in Pharmacological Science: A Note on Highly Specific Branch of Science
Devansh Mehta, Dr. Mohd. Shuaib, Dr. Shamim Ahmad
Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) means computational power to mimic the cognitive power of a human brain. Recent times lots of interest and utilization of an AI is happening across the globe & across the industries. Pharmacology usually uses drug leads and compounds either extracted from nature or synthesized in vitro, to find newer drugs for diseases. AI will definitely help in discovering of drugs as high-throughput screening techniques can use AI and can help in saving lots of time, resources & manpower (scientists). The present paper is an effort to put across idea of how, when, and where an artificial intelligence can be used in order to speedily discover new drugs & treatments for diseases. Artificial Intelligence (AI) can use the network of small computational units, in together called as ANN (Artificial Neural Networks). These networks can mimic the power of human brain and can carry out research at very high & astronomical speeds. Hence, this paper will put across the intelligence hidden in AI & its importance to the field of Pharmacology.
