Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a powerful tool that is set to revolutionize healthcare entirely. With the ability to mine medical records, AI algorithms can design treatment plans, develop drugs quicker than any current doctor, and even diagnose cancerous and noncancerous tissue samples.

The start-up, launched in 2015, created a virtual search for safe, existing medicines that could be reengineered to treat the Ebola virus. Two drugs were found which were predicted by the company’s AI technology that may reduce the infectivity of Ebola.
