About the Book

Artificial intelligence is transforming the life sciences. From decoding genomic data and predicting protein structures to advancing precision medicine and digital healthcare, AI is reshaping how researchers investigate biological systems, understand disease, discover new therapies, and improve patient care.

This book explores the convergence of artificial intelligence, machine learning, molecular biology, biomedical research, and healthcare. This volume provides the essential foundations required to understand one of the most significant scientific revolutions of the twenty-first century.

As advances in genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, medical imaging, and electronic health records generate unprecedented amounts of biological data, traditional analytical approaches are no longer sufficient. Artificial intelligence enables researchers and healthcare professionals to extract meaningful insights from complex datasets, accelerating scientific discovery and clinical innovation.
