Using data science and digital health to advance medicines
The R&D Data Science & Digital Health team at J&J Innovative Medicine is making a tangible impact on how we discover and develop medicines to help impact health for humanity.
Capabilities
Machine learning
By leveraging state-of-the-art machine learning techniques to recognize complex patterns in vast amounts of data, we can more effectively and efficiently develop innovative therapies for patients.
Artificial intelligence, machine-based image analysis and computer vision
By leveraging both artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) analysis techniques, image analysis has become a cornerstone of healthcare Data Science and Digital Health by helping to solve real-world challenges.
Real-world data in clinical design and operations
Our goal is to unleash the value of real-world data (RWD) in the era of artificial intelligence (AI) through rigorous analysis and strategic collaborations.
Technology-enabled genomics
The rapid evolution of high-throughput sequencing technologies empowers us to collect high dimensional genomics data on huge numbers of patients, enabling the discovery of novel biomarkers, mechanisms of action and drug targets.
Natural language processing
Today, 80 percent of the world’s data is unstructured. Our deep expertise in natural language processing (NLP) empowers our scientists to make use of data and insights extracted from this wealth of d
AI-based drug design and generative modeling
The chemical space for drug-like compounds is so vast that it can barely be comprehended. By leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) principles, we can more intelligently search through this space and evaluate millions of compounds for multiple desired properties in parallel, thereby drastically speeding up the time to discover safe, effective therapies.
