INTRODUCTION

Nanomedicine, at the intersection of nanotechnology and medicine, holds immense promise for revolutionizing healthcare by enabling targeted and personalized treatments with unprecedented precision. However, the complexity of biological systems and the challenges associated with designing effective nanomedicines call for innovative approaches [1, 2]. In recent years, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and computational modeling has emerged as a transformative strategy to accelerate the development and optimization of nanomedical solutions. This article explores the diverse applications, benefits, and future prospects of applying AI and computational modeling in nanomedicine. Nanomedicine, a burgeoning field at the nexus of nanotechnology and medicine, offers unparalleled opportunities to revolutionize healthcare by delivering precise and personalized therapeutic interventions [3,4]. However, the intricate interplay between biological systems and nanomaterials poses significant challenges in the design, optimization, and delivery of effective nanomedical solutions. In response to these challenges, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and computational modeling has emerged as a promising strategy to accelerate progress in nanomedicine. AI, encompassing machine learning, deep learning, and neural networks, excels at analyzing vast datasets, identifying patterns, and making predictions. By leveraging AI techniques, researchers can streamline drug discovery processes, optimize nanocarrier properties, and tailor treatments to individual patient characteristics. Computational modeling complements experimental approaches by providing insights into the behavior and performance of nanomedical systems at multiple scales, from molecular interactions to physiological responses [5,6].

The role of artificial intelligence in nanomedicine

Artificial intelligence encompasses a range of techniques, including machine learning, deep learning, and neural networks, which excel at analyzing large datasets, identifying patterns, and making predictions. In nanomedicine, AI plays a pivotal role in various aspects:

Drug discovery and design: AI algorithms can expedite the discovery of novel therapeutic agents by analyzing molecular structures, predicting their interactions with biological targets, and optimizing drug candidates for enhanced efficacy and reduced toxicity.

Targeted drug delivery: AI-driven models facilitate the design of nanocarriers with tailored properties for efficient drug delivery to specific tissues or cells. By considering factors such as particle size, surface chemistry, and targeting ligands, AI algorithms optimize the pharmacokinetics and biodistribution of nanomedicines.

Predictive modeling of biological responses: Computational models powered by AI simulate complex biological processes to predict the behavior of nanomaterials in physiological environments. These models enable researchers to anticipate the interactions between nanoparticles and biological components, such as proteins, cells, and tissues, guiding the rational design of nanotherapeutics [7,8].

Personalized medicine: AI algorithms analyze patient-specific data, including genomic information, medical imaging, and clinical records, to tailor nanomedical interventions to individual characteristics. By integrating multi-omics data and predictive analytics, AI facilitates the identification of optimal treatment strategies and the prediction of patient outcomes.

Computational modeling in nanomedicine

Computational modeling complements experimental approaches by providing insights into the behavior and performance of nanomedical systems at different scales. Key applications of computational modeling in nanomedicine include:

Molecular dynamics simulations: These simulations elucidate the dynamics of nanomaterials at the atomic level, revealing their interactions with biological molecules and the underlying physicochemical mechanisms governing drug delivery and release.

Quantitative structure-activity relationship (qsar) modeling:QSAR models correlate the chemical structure of nanomaterials with their biological activities, guiding the rational design of nanotherapeutics with desired properties and minimizing off-target effects.

Population pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics modeling: These models integrate data from preclinical and clinical studies to predict the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles of nanomedicines in diverse patient populations, informing dosing regimens and treatment strategies [9].

Multiphysics modeling: Multiphysics simulations capture the coupled interactions between different physical phenomena, such as fluid flow, heat transfer, and mass transport, in complex nanomedical systems. These models aid in optimizing the performance and functionality of nanocarriers for specific biomedical applications.
