My interview with Technology Networks on rethinking target-based drug discovery. We discuss why target-first approaches often fail and how AI and structure-guided methods can better link targets to therapeutic impact. tinyurl.com/5evzw7h8 #DrugDiscovery #AIDrugDiscovery 🔗

Yuval Itan@ItanLab·
A postdoc position is open in my lab to develop AI/ML models for predicting functional effects of genetic variants and to lead large-scale PheWAS in major biobanks. Strong programming skills, a solid publication record, and a background in human genetics are required.
