Envisagenics, supported by the Center for Biotechnology at Stony Brook University, is a pioneering biotech company that has been applying AI to drug target discovery for over a decade. In drug development, targets are molecular structures (often proteins) where drugs bind to exert their therapeutic effects. For cancer, an ideal target is a cell-surface protein found exclusively on tumor cells but not in healthy tissues.

Fuzehub recently profiled the work Envisagenics is doing on their blog - read the full post here: https://fuzehub.com/manufacturing-blog/nystar-supported-ai-advancements-make-strides-in-fight-against-cancer/
