AI hallucinations in drug discovery aren't just an AI problem — they're a data problem. 👉 52% of life science professionals say poor data quality is the #1 barrier to AI implementation 👉 27% of organisations can't even trace the evidence chain powering their AI systems. In this new white-paper authored by Digital Science's Mark Hahnel we see the practical playbook: FAIR data principles, knowledge graphs, and neuro-symbolic AI for building a foundation pharma can actually trust. If you're navigating AI in R&D and wondering why it isn't delivering, this is for…

The recent cyberattack on Stryker, a leading medical technology manufacturer, serves as a stark reminder of the escalating risks posed by state-linked cyber threats to commercial organisations. Attributed to the Iran-linked hacktivist group Handala, the attack caused widespread disruption across 79 countries, wiping over 200,000 devices and compromising 50 terabytes of data. The attack underscores the urgent need for robust identity governance, network segmentation, and resilient backup strategies to mitigate the impact of such attacks. With the ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle…
