In a study published in Nature, researchers at Oxford and Harvard unveiled EVEscape, an AI tool designed to predict the emergence of new viral variants.

It is hoped the model will help in the design of vaccines by studying how viruses mutate.

An AI tool called EVEscape that predicts viral mutations could guide vaccines and therapies for COVID-19 — and future pandemics.

AlphaMissense, an adaptation of AlphaFold, offers a highly accurate model for predicting the pathogenicity of human proteome-wide missense variants at the single amino acid level. The model outperforms existing methods, providing valuable insights for diagnosing rare diseases and developing targeted therapies.

No two human beings are the same, a biologic singularity encoded in the unique arrangement of the molecules that make up our individual DNA. By
