This could re-energise the drug pipeline just in time Could AI save us from the antibiotic apocalypse? That’s the hope from new research in which scientists designed novel drugs atom-by-atom to beat two notorious superbugs, including MRSA. Antibiotic resistance is a growing problem, causing the deaths of around five million people a year. Even routine operations could become life-threatening events …

Getty Images Artificial intelligence has invented two new potential antibiotics that could kill drug-resistant gonorrhoea and MRSA, researchers have revealed. The drugs were designed atom-by-atom by the AI and killed the superbugs in laboratory and animal tests. The two compounds still need years of refinement and clinical trials before they could be prescribed. But the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) …
