The U.S. NIH is not generally regarded as a wellspring of concepts and policies in the world of artificial intelligence (AI), but that perception may change soon thanks to the agency’s Bridge2AI program. The agency announced recently that it will drop $130 million into this program over four years in an effort to develop standards for data used in AI research, a key development for device makers seeking to sell products that use these complex algorithms.

McMaster University has identified antibody-recruiting molecules (ARMs) consisting of human coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) proteins targeting domain covalently bound to an antibody-binding terminus (recruiting anti-DNP antibodies) through a linker.
Immunoprecise Antibodies Ltd.'s subsidiary, Talem Therapeutics LLC, has shared promising results of a new study conducted by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) showing continued resilience of Polytope TATX-03 in broadly neutralizing SARS-CoV-2 variants, including two omicron sublineages that had not been previously tested.
Invivyd Inc. (formerly Adagio Therapeutics Inc.) has generated multiple next-generation candidate antibodies for the prevention and treatment of COVID-19, including two molecules designated for near-term clinical development in combination as NVD-200.
Researchers from Boston Children’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School reported the discovery and preclinical evaluation of SP1-77, a novel humanized monoclonal IgG-κ antibody targeting the receptor-binding-domain (RBD) of spike (S) glycoprotein of all SARS-CoV-2 variants.
Intravacc BV has announced additional preclinical and toxicology data for Avacc 10, the company's SARS-CoV-2 intranasal candidate vaccine, showing a reduction in upper respiratory tract viral load, broad cross protection against circulating variants of concern and a promising safety profile.
Inflarx NV is poised to apply for U.S. FDA emergency use authorization for its complement inhibitor, vilobelimab, in treating seriously ill, mechanically ventilated COVID-19 patients, following a reappraisal of the statistical analysis of the 369-patient placebo-controlled phase III trial.
