Most diseases still have no cure. Getting a new medicine approved takes more than a decade and around a billion dollars. Seven of eight programs fail, often because the target never caused the disease.
Non-causal targets get picked because no one can see the whole disease. A disease is a complex system: thousands of genes, cells, and signals pushing on each other, with more states than any experiment can enumerate. To find a cause, you have to model this biological complexity.
To make this happen, we must bring together biology, machine learning, data engineering, and mathematics of complex systems. This is the Theorema team.
