AI assistant to boost healthcare by searching for medical solutions in scientific literature India Live Today
San Francisco,Nov30:Riva-Melissa Tez was searching online for research that might help her father. He'd gone into a coma after suffering a stroke, and she wondered what the latest recommendations said--whether playing music to him in his native language could keep him connected to this world, or if giving him Prozac could boost his chances of recovery as it had done for mice in a study last year. A company named Iris launched a first version of that type of assistant. The machine can currently read the abstract of a paper, map out its key concepts, and find papers relevant to those concepts. It provides a quick way to get a sense of the scientific landscape for a given topic, something especially useful when you don't know the exact keywords for the type of research you are looking for.
