AI accelerates pandemic response and vaccine design

Artificial intelligence holds significant potential to accelerate scientific responses to future pandemics. AI models can analyze viral genomes, predict critical biological components like epitopes and antigens, and aid in the design of vaccines. However, these computational tools cannot replace essential laboratory experiments, manufacturing validation, and human clinical trials, underscoring the continued importance of biological processes in vaccine development. AI

IMPACT AI tools can speed up critical research phases for pandemic preparedness and vaccine development, though they do not replace essential biological validation steps.
