@Diplomatt42 @MattZeitlin No, we don’t list any tools on delegation log ultimately the work is still attributable to the study staff

Yes, but do you anticipate regulators or sponsors having issues with agents accessing systems? Would we need to add Claude to the delegation log? I also say we'd need consolidation to make some logic checks easier (e.g. does sample ID recorded on source in CRIO match what was inputted on PPD shipment?). Maybe it is easy enough for agents to handle that example tho

so AI drug discovery sounds great but how's AI going to make clinical trials faster? i'm sure there's a podcast I could listen to about this but can someone just tell me

@MattZeitlin The only way I can see it making trials go faster is for analysis and paperwork involved, could use AI and automation to speed up the lab work but we already do this in regular clinical settings and it doesn’t actually speed up the work in any meaningful way

Ozempic users on Reddit knew things the clinical trials didn't and AI just proved it 400,000 posts from 70,000 people described side effects that never made it to a doctor's office, and researchers are only now paying attention. What the study found and how: Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania used artificial intelligence to analyze more than 400,000 Reddit posts over five years, examining symptoms reported by nearly 70,000 users taking GLP-1 drugs including semaglutide and tirzepatide. The study, published in Nature Health, identified two categories of effects that appear underreported in clinical trial data: reproductive symptoms including irregular menstrual cycles, heavy bleeding, and bleeding between periods, and temperature-related symptoms including chills, hot flashes, and fever-like sensations. Fatigue ranked as the second most commonly reported complaint despite appearing infrequently in official trial data. Clinical trials are not designed to find what patients are actually experiencing: Nearly 4 percent of Reddit users in the sample reported menstrual irregularities, a figure researchers describe as a signal worth investigating, noting it would be even higher in a female-only sample. Traditional clinical trials are built to identify the most dangerous side effects, not the most common patient concerns. The gap between what trials document and what patients discuss with each other in real time is where this research operates. The hypothalamus connects the dots between weight loss drugs and hormonal disruption: GLP-1 drugs work in part by engaging the hypothalamus, the region of the brain that regulates a wide range of hormones governing reproductive function and body temperature. Researchers do not claim the drugs are definitively causing these symptoms, but identify the biological mechanism as a credible pathway warranting systematic study. The drugs went from niche prescriptions to mainstream medications almost overnight, making early signal detection unusually important. AI made the analysis possible at a scale that was previously out of reach: Matching the informal language of patient posts to standardized medical terminology used in regulatory systems has historically been the bottleneck in this kind of research. Large language models made it possible to process and organize posts with a level of speed and standardization that would have taken years through conventional methods. Future research will expand beyond English-language Reddit communities to determine whether the patterns hold across other populations and platforms. scitechdaily.com/new-research-u…

@MattZeitlin This is an empirical question that we should have the answer to in a couple of years If the AI-driven pharma startups don’t start bringing drugs through early clinical trials, we’ll know whether Dario is wrong

There's huge potential in streamlining PI, monitor, and coordinator workflows. Instead of monitoring data once every 1-2 months, it'll be near real time. There's even potential for a lot of coordinator to be automated, but I think we'll need to see a lot of consolidation loans on vendors before that happens. There are too many systems these days that just can't talk to each other

While the market gets distracted by the noise, smart money is making moves. Today in $IOVA we saw a 25% surge in Open Interest for the $5.00 strike (May 15 exp). Heavy accumulation taking advantage of the consolidation at $3.80. The dilution narrative is dead; fundamentals are back in charge.

$IOVA is undervalued for one main reason: commercialization. The market believes demand is real, but still doubts execution. As long as investors aren't convinced the company can run a stable commercial operation without repeated disruptions, bigger TAM and new indications
