MIT researchers have used a form of artificial intelligence called deep learning to identify a new classification of compounds that can effectively kill methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), a drug-resistant bacterium accountable for over 10,000 deaths in the US each year. The researchers have demonstrated that these deep-learning-identified compounds not only have the ability to kill…
MIT researchers have utilized deep learning, a form of artificial intelligence, to discover a series of compounds capable of killing a drug-resistant bacterium responsible for over 10,000 deaths in the United States annually. The research, published in Nature, demonstrates these compounds can kill methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in lab dishes and two mouse models. Apart…
MIT scientists have used a form of artificial intelligence (AI) known as deep learning to identify compounds that can eradicate a drug-resistant bacterium linked to over 10,000 annual deaths in the US. The researchers showed that the compounds can eliminate methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in lab and mouse models, with very low toxicity against human…
