        <title>Groundbreaking AI aims to speed lifesaving therapies</title>
        <link>https://news.vt.edu/articles/2025/09/eng-cs-groundbreaking-AI-aims-to-speed-lifesaving-therapies.html</link>
        <description><![CDATA[ Little is known about how novel viruses like SARS-CoV-2 evolve or conditions like dementia develop at the molecular level, but an artificial intelligence model developed at Virginia Tech helps fill those gaps and generate more accurate maps of the inner landscape. Now, instead of guessing, drug developers can analyze where viruses attach to human proteins and design treatments to block them.  ]]></description>
