Artificial Intelligence in Drug Discovery and Repurposing for Neurodegenerative Disorders
Muhammad Liaquat Raza, M.K.G. Abbas · 2024
Neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer&s;s disease and Parkinson&s;s disease, pose escalating challenges to global healthcare systems due to an aging population. This chapter explores the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in revolutionizing drug discovery for these disorders, highlighting its potential to decipher complex biological data and uncover novel therapeutic candidates. By integrating AI with neuroimaging and computational neuroscience, the chapter underscores the transformative impact on diagnostics and treatment strategies. Case studies illustrate AI&s;s success in identifying and repurposing drugs, while ethical considerations and future prospects are also discussed.
