AI could offer new hope for rare disease diagnosis

Artificial intelligence (AI) is showing promise in the medical field, particularly for rare diseases, which affect around 300 million people worldwide. Despite the rarity of individual diseases, collectively they are common and often go undiagnosed or untreated. Dr. Timothy Curry from the Mayo Clinic highlights the potential of AI to analyze vast amounts of data, helping to identify patterns and possibly repurpose existing medications, as 95% of rare diseases currently lack treatments. AI advancements may also lower drug development costs, attracting more research focus on these conditions.
