Virtual reality (VR) is a technology that immerses users in a computer-generated simulation of a 3D environment. This technology is becoming increasingly popular in drug discovery, as it allows ...

If you've ever tried taking a picture of a puppy, you likely ended up with a blur of fur. Now try reading a stock ticker on the puppy's fur, and you'll have the challenge that faces researchers ...

What’s a hallucinogen without the hallucinations? Perhaps a potent and fast-acting antidepressant, according to a new study based on virtual drug screening. Psychedelic drugs are now widely understood ...

Mayo Clinic researchers have developed a new way to predict whether existing drugs could be repurposed to treat heart failure, one of the world's most pressing health challenges. By combining advanced ...

A new study has shown how machine learning can be used to simulate drug–target binding affinity to identify potential new drugs. Two virtual drug discovery methods are already in use: high-throughput ...

Real world data is transforming clinical research, augmenting existing randomized controlled trial data to reduce risks and improve generalizability. With regulators setting clearer standards for ...

The failure of many potential candidates during clinical trials significantly impacts the cost of drug development. Computational drug design has the means to lower these costs by allowing not only ...

U.S. employers grappling with mounting expenses linked to covering obesity drugs like Novo Nordisk A/S's (NYSE:NVO) Wegovy and Eli Lilly And Co's (NYSE:LLY) Zepbound are increasingly turning to ...

A new study suggests that virtual reality experiences designed to mimic psychedelic visual effects could safely boost creativity and flexibility in thinking -- without the use of drugs. Researchers ...

Certain psychedelic drugs are of interest to researchers due to their promising antidepressant effects. To help speed up the discovery of molecules with useful properties, researchers have built a ...
