The new system, called scNET, combines information on gene expression at the single-cell level with information on gene interactions, enabling the identification of important biological patterns such as responses to drug treatments.
People in the study also reported they could trust and communicate with the system, known as Therabot, to a degree that is comparable to working with a mental-health professional.

Researchers found that an AI tool called Unfold AI, developed by researchers at UCLA and Avenda Health, accurately estimates prostate tumor volume and helps identify patients with a higher chance of successful treatment.
The researchers have demonstrated the tool's potential by identifying a promising candidate to prevent heart failure, a leading cause of death in the United States and around the world.
