New tool combining evolution and AI predicts prostate cancer recurrence more than a decade ahead 11 Jul 2024 Combining the principles of evolution with artificial intelligence (AI), scientists have proposed a new way to predict the chance of prostate cancer returning. In a recent study, they harnessed computational methods to capture specific tumour measurements relating to the tumour’s ability to change over time. They then showed that these measurements correlate with disease recurrence more than a decade after the initial diagnosis. Find out more Show/Hide
Animal kingdom-wide AI tool could help unravel cancer complexity 29 Jun 2023 An international study led by ICR scientists has accurately categorised tumour and immune cells of non-human animal species by applying an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm that was trained on human lung cancer samples.
