Recommendation
The AI software Trial Pathfinder offers hope for medical clinicians looking to safely expand and diversify clinical drug trials, for cancer and other diseases. Chunhua Weng and James Rogers outline a Stanford University research project, led by Ruishan Liu, which revealed the possibility of including people in trials who have often been excluded for reasons of age, health or gender.
