Phenomics + computer vision for drug discovery with Imran Haque (Recursion Pharma)
Manage episode 269861109 series 2769784
Conventional drug discovery ignores the spatial relationships between cells when assessing the effects of drugs. I talk with Imran Haque, VP of Data Science at Recursion Pharmaceuticals, about their data-first approach that combines "cell painting" with deep learning to assess changes in cellular morphology, thus providing a crucial lens into the molecular wirings of a given drug's mechanism of action. We discuss his team's work in repurposing therapies to tackle COVID-19 and what it takes to successfully merge deep learning with cellular images in a way that yields therapies.
