Artificial intelligence is being used to help diagnose antibiotic resistance. Responsible for 700,000 deaths in 2020, drug-resistant disease is a priority health issue for the World Health Organisation. In light of this, researchers and engineers in France have developed Antibiogo, an application that helps diagnose antibiotic resistance. It’s expected to […]
