Building Access to Tomorrow’s Medicines: bringing together humans, robots, and artificial intelligence - A Workshop

CSR Workshop Flyer

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will host a workshop exploring the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in chemical sciences and drug discovery. Sponsored by the Chemical Sciences Roundtable, this event will bring together researchers, policymakers, and stakeholders to examine how AI tools can address data biases and democratize pharmaceutical research, potentially reducing drug development costs down from billions of dollars and decades of work.

Biocompatible Albumin Nanocages as J-Aggregates Carriers for Enhanced Photothermal Therapy

The development of sustainable nanotechnology aligns with the principles of green chemistry, offering innovative solutions with reduced environmental impact. In this work, we present biocompatible and biodegradable nanocages as carriers for J-aggregates designed for photothermal therapy applications. These nanocages are synthesized using renewable feedstocks and prepared with green solvents such as water and ethanol, minimizing the use of hazardous chemicals.

Development of Porous Bionanomaterials Based on Polymers and Cyclodextrin with Possible Biomedical and Environmental Applications

The low bioavailability of widely used drugs, such as metformin (MFH), makes it necessary to administer constant doses to achieve the desired therapeutic effect, which leads to an increase in adverse effects and toxicity. In addition, their disposal also causes an environmental impact on both the ecosystem and organisms [1,2]. The development of materials based on biocompatible polymers is one of the most promising alternatives to reduce the dosage of active ingredients. Besides, these materials can function as adsorbents of micropollutants in the wastewater treatment [3].
