Could artificial intelligence help treat brain cancer?
Two companies are using artificial intelligence and laboratory testing to find new combinations of approved drugs which could treat medical conditions such as brain cancer.

Noteable Labs hopes to certify their method within a year to allow them to treat large numbers of people.
