A novel AI tool, DrugProtAI, promises to transform drug development by accurately identifying proteins that can be targeted by medicines, addressing a major hurdle in clinical research.

New research reveals that while AI excels at basic scientific perception, it struggles with complex reasoning, spatial understanding, and integrating information from different sources, highlighting key areas for future development.

An AI-powered robotic system, Polybot, has successfully automated the complex process of creating highly conductive and defect-free electronic polymer films, paving the way for faster material discovery and manufacturing.

A new study suggests that widespread, regular chest X-rays, powered by AI, could significantly reduce tuberculosis cases and deaths in India.

IIT Kharagpur researchers have developed a new framework using blockchain-based technology and token-based incentivisation to securely and fairly share data to train an AI model.

On 17th January 2025, Satya Nadella, Microsoft's Chairman and CEO, took to X to announce a research paper published in Nature that caught our attention.

Researchers have sped up the study of light-matter interaction on specially-engineered surfaces.

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Roorkee, India, and Kyoto University, Japan, have designed a machine-learning algorithm to identify the grade of glioma with high accuracy.

Banana, a nutritionally-rich, delicious fruit, is a widely-cultivated crop across the world and is a staple diet of people living in parts of Africa, Asia and Latin America. Due to pests and diseases, only 13% of the global production is traded, and often, farmers in India experience severe loss due to fusarium wilt or Panama disease. A novel innovation now aims to change the fortunes of banana growers by helping them detect diseases and pests with their smartphone. In a recent study, researchers from the USA, Democratic Republic of Congo, Uganda, Ethiopia and India have developed a banana pest detection app powered by artificial intelligence (AI).

Forests, with their rich biodiversity, play a critical role not only in the ecology of a region but also in social systems that involve humans. Researchers from the University of Illinois, USA, used artificial intelligence to evaluate the forest management policies in Himachal Pradesh, India.
