Recent advances in modern artificial intelligence demonstrated promising results in both biomarker development and drug discovery and the leading academic and research institutions are expanding their AI groups. The Buck Institute is the leading research institution with massive amounts of biological data coming from high-throughput experiments and with the unique multidisciplinary expertise in aging research. Alex Zhavoronkov works on the intersection of the next-generation of artificial intelligence and aging research and will help support the AI efforts at the Buck. "We are incredibly excited about the potential of AI to accelerate aging research," said Dr. Eric Verdin, President and CEO of the Buck Institute. "The Buck has been at the forefront of asking the most important questions in the field. Now, with the latest in bioinformatics and artificial intelligence, and with the involvement of world-class experts like Dr. Zhavoronkov, we will finally have the tools to answer them. Fully utilizing these powerful technologies, we will dramatically increase our understanding of how aging works, and what we can do about it."
