NEW DELHI: A team of researchers are using artificial intelligence (AI) to discover existing drugs to help patients suffering from chronic pain.
Treating chronic pain with opioids is still a challenge due to the risk of severe side effects and dependency, said co-first author Yunguang Qiu, postdoctoral fellow At Cleveland Clinic. In the study, published in the journal Cell Press, the team focussed on mapping out gut metabolites to spot drug targets.
