Artificial intelligence has the potential to help save millions of lives by accelerating the discovery and development of treatments for humanity’s toughest diseases. Those AI innovations come down to three key factors: data, hardware, and software. Science Will Win Season 4 takes listeners on a journey back in time to learn how each of these three elements got where it is today. Each episode features interviews with historians and cutting-edge researchers, framing these deep historical dives within modern advancements in medical technology. What challenges did science have to overcome to bring us where we are today, the midst of an AI revolution in medicine? Tune in to this new, four-part series, coming soon!

Science Will Win is back for a new season. Now, we’re taking you back in time to learn how artificial intelligence came to unlock new opportunities in drug discovery and development.
There are a trillion more potential medicines and vaccines than there are atoms on Earth. More than double the stars in the universe. The chemical space – the number of chemicals that could be made in labs – is larger than we can comprehend.
Creating a new medicine or vaccine is a process of trying… and trying again. Science has long had methods to find potential breakthroughs – but still, the number of medicines humans have created is only a tiny fraction of the possibilities out there.
AI has the potential to help us change that. And we’re going to chart the past, present, and future of this revolutionary technology.
