Arb Research uses AI to map global medicine approval discrepancies

A project called Juriscription, developed by Arb Research, has identified 101 instances where the US and UK regulatory bodies disagree on medicine approvals. The project aims to highlight the arbitrariness of regulatory decisions and help individuals find medications unavailable in their home countries. Despite initial hopes that AI could automate this process, significant manual effort was required due to the complexity and ambiguity of pharmaceutical data. AI
