Understanding cancer at a genetic level with AI

Short summary

Google DeepMind's team in Uganda uses AlphaFold to identify genetic targets for breast cancer vaccines. By analyzing protein expression, they narrowed 15,000 potential binding sites to 15 viable candidates for lab validation. The work demonstrates how AI accelerates medical discovery in global oncology research.
