A research team led by Professor Kim Hyungsik has been selected to manage 2020 second MFDS-funded research project. The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS) is accelerating the development of toxicity prediction method deploying big data-based artificial intelligence (AI), which would be implemented to screen new substances such as new drugs and new food ingredients. MFDS has announced to invest ₩4.5 billion for three years on professor Kim’s research to build an advanced toxicity prediction and evaluation system.
Major tasks are ▲ toxicity prediction based on similarity of substance’s chemical structures or in vivo alteration on genes and proteins, ▲ toxicity prediction in laboratory animals based on image data.
