On July 7, the 2nd CCF-GAIR Global Artificial Intelligence and Robotics Summit hosted by China Computer Society (CCF) and Lei Fengwang and the Chinese University of Hong Kong (Shenzhen) opened in Shenzhen. On the third day of the conference, the medical artificial intelligence session, the University of Hong Kong Chair Professor, Director of the Advanced Technology Institute, and IEEE RAS President-elect Xi Ning made a report.
Professor Xi Ning believes that human understanding of life has reached the molecular and cellular scales, innovation in drug development and treatment, and methods that require measurement and manipulation at the molecular and cellular scales – micro-nano robots. He further cites examples of micro-nano robots for new drug development and diagnostic treatment. He believes that micro-nano robots expand human capabilities, allowing people to explore nature at the nanometer scale, which will have a subversive impact on all aspects of human beings.
The following content was compiled by Lei Feng from the report of Professor Xi Ning, with the following deletions:
Today I want to introduce the application of micro-nano robots in the development of medicine and new drugs.
We know that medical care is mainly in both diagnostic and therapeutic aspects. From the engineering point of view, the diagnosis is to measure various abnormal phenomena of the human body. Treatment, in terms of engineering, is to change the existing state of human cells. The two important functions of the robot: Sensing and Manipulation can play an important role in diagnosis and treatment.
We first review the history of the struggle between humans and diseases. At the beginning, the diagnosis is to see whether the patient's temperament is good or not. Chinese medicine looks at the tongue, looks good, and looks good. Later, with X-ray technology, you can see the inside of the body, see organs such as the lungs, and diagnose the patient's physical condition from the shape of the organs. Nowadays, medicine has developed into the stage of cells and molecules, and medical diagnosis is the same. We need to reduce diagnostic techniques to micrometers, nanoscales, and Sensing at the molecular molecular scale to provide new diagnostic methods.
The same is true for treatment. The beginning is the angle of the organ. The operation is performed on the organ. Take Western medicine as an example. The repair and resection of the organ are at this scale. With the development of molecular biology, surgery begins at the cellular level and at the molecular level of DNA. DNA molecules are the core code for controlling cell growth and development, and cells are the basic unit of organ organization, which will be solved from more fundamental causes. Human disease problems. At the same time, Sensing and Manipulation methods on smaller scales are needed as the scale is reduced.
Why do you need this for new drug development?
The most traditional Chinese medicine is the result of human accumulation through hundreds of thousands of years of accumulation and continuous trials. Traditional new drug development is a new target-based drug development, which is based on the development of new drugs based on signaling pathways. This comprehensively sees the relationship between diseases and various factors, and considers the side effects more comprehensively. The development of new drugs requires new tools and new technologies, namely Sensing and Manipulation at the molecular and cellular levels, which simultaneously provides new applications for the development of robots.
Drug development is an important part of the struggle between humans and diseases. Nowadays, human beings face great challenges. The cost of developing new drugs is getting higher and higher. It takes about 10 to 1.5 billion US dollars to develop a drug, which takes nearly 10 years. At present, the investment in new drug development is growing every year, but the quantity of drugs is basically flat, indicating that there are few new drugs, and the cost is increasing. The gap between input and output is increasing.
At the same time, there are more and more new diseases. Many diseases have not been heard a few decades ago, but now there are many new diseases, the number of medicines has not increased, and the cost is getting higher and higher. This is a big problem for humans and diseases to fight. To solve this problem, we need to open up new ways to develop new drugs, and we must use new technologies to change the status quo.
Overrun robot
Can robots and automation technology help us solve this problem?
Artificial intelligence and robots are very hot fields, which play a big role in the manufacturing industry and life, and also play a big role in new drugs and medical diagnosis and treatment.
Most people start robots are in place (machine substitutions), but for a man can do what want to do, such as high repetitive labor, but with the development of robot technology, robotics has become a place of people expanded from simple People are not just things that people do not want to do, but people can't do things. For example, robots combined with modern information technology and network technology, robots can operate far away, can help people overcome the difficulties caused by distance.
