SUMMARY:Next-Gen Healing: Designed by Algorithms.
DESCRIPTION:Advances in intelligent computing are redefining how we discover therapeutics and engineer regenerative tissues. This talk presents two complementary\, algorithm-driven approaches aimed at transforming treatments for neurological and skeletal disorders. First\, we introduce a computational peptidomics pipeline that mines genomic data to identify precursor sequences encoding neuroactive peptides\, which are key modulators of signal transmission that bind heptahelical receptors. Traditional peptide discovery is slow and serendipitous; our algorithms predict peptide maturation pathways\, including post-translational modifications\, and pair these predictions with a high-sensitivity assay capable of detecting receptor-generated second messengers such as InsPs and cAMP. This integrated strategy has yielded promising peptide-based drug candidates for Parkinson’s disease and Osteoporosis\, now advancing through animal testing. Parallel to this\, we present a bioengineering framework for creating biomimetic\, biocompatible bone scaffolds. Using uCT images of osteoporotic bone\, we design and 3D-print trabecular structures optimized for both mechanical strength and osteoconductivity\, addressing limitations of current synthetic scaffolds. These engineered matrices\, enhanced by the osteogenic Calcitonin Receptor Fragment Peptide\, support robust osteoblast growth and functional bone formation. Together\, these innovations illustrate how algorithmic design and intelligent technologies can accelerate next-generation healing\, from molecular therapeutics to regenerative tissues.\nCo-sponsored by: Vishnu S.
