In this episode, we provide a comprehensive overview of how AI is fundamentally transforming the field of drug delivery. The source material details advancements across numerous therapeutic modalities, including nanoparticles, long-acting injectables (LAIs), nucleic acids (LNPs), PROTACs, and gene therapy vectors (AAVs), emphasizing that AI serves as the "glue" for optimizing complex design spaces and sparse experimental data. The report outlines specific AI methodologies being employed, such as predictive surrogate modeling, hybrid physics+ML (digital twins), and generative design, to tackle bottlenecks like biodistribution and manufacturability. Finally, the text provides concrete examples of recent research papers and a practical blueprint for integrating AI into pharmaceutical research and development programs. Produced by Dr. Jake Chen.
