  • Michigan State University researchers have led the development of a new artificial intelligence (AI) program that can help speed up and reduce the cost of drug development. 
  • The program is called TopoFormer and is based on the same technology that underlies ChatGPT. 
  • TopoFormer empowers conventional computer models used in drug discovery to incorporate important information that they previously couldn’t use to offer more robust predictions of how a drug will interact with its biological target.
