Leveraging AI to Address the Neuropsychiatric Conditions Associated with a Rare Disease

RARECast

Though many drug developers today are applying artificial intelligence and machine learning to accelerate and improve drug discovery, the results they produce, in part, may be limited to the quality of the data they are able to use. Nobias Therapeutics is not only using public and private data, but it boasts unique and proprietary access to one of the world’s largest and most diverse pediatric genomic data sets to drive insights into human biology. The company’s lead experimental therapy is a treatment for the rare condition 22q11.2 deletion syndrome, which is associated with a range of neuropsychiatric conditions. We spoke to Neil Inala, CEO of Nobias Therapeutics, about how AI is transforming drug discovery, the data Nobias is able to use to fuel its drug discovery, and the company’s experimental therapy for the neuropsychiatric conditions associated with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome.
