In 2021, the number of deals in funding for artificial intelligence (AI) drug discovery and design saw a peak with 112. The year 2022 saw a decline in deal number, and as of June, only 24 deals were reported for 2023. This statistic shows the number of funding deals in artificial intelligence (AI) drug discovery and design from 2019 to 2023.

Dementia is the loss of mental function affecting daily activities, caused by brain diseases and brain injuries. Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia.

The market for artificial intelligence grew beyond 184 billion U.S. dollars in 2024, a considerable jump of nearly 50 billion compared to 2023. This staggering growth is expected to continue with the market racing past 826 billion U.S. dollars in 2030. AI demands data Data management remains the most difficult task of AI-related infrastructure. This challenge takes many forms for AI companies. Some require more specific data, while others have difficulty maintaining and organizing the data their enterprise already possesses. Large international bodies like the EU, the US, and China all have limitations on how much data can be stored outside their borders. Together these bodies pose significant challenges to data-hungry AI companies. AI could boost productivity growth Both in productivity and labor changes, the U.S. is likely to be heavily impacted by the adoption of AI. This impact need not be purely negative. Labor rotation, if handled correctly, can swiftly move workers to more productive and value-added industries rather than simple manual labor ones. In turn, these industry shifts will lead to a more productive economy. Indeed, AI could boost U.S. labor productivity growth over a 10-year period. This, of course, depends on a variety of factors, such as how powerful the next generation of AI is, the difficulty of tasks it will be able to perform, and the number of workers displaced.

Tips to Get Active. Information and tips for parents, teachers and caregivers of children (5-11 years)

1 in 8 people (4 million Canadians) get sick each year from contaminated food. Over 11,500 hospitalizations and 240 deaths occur each year due to food-related illnesses. Numbers includes both estimates for 30 foodborne pathogens and unknown causes of acute gastrointestinal illness.

Positive mental health is the capacity to feel, think, and act in ways that enhance the ability to enjoy life and deal with challenges.

In the past five years (2016 to 2020) rates of infectious syphilis among females increased by 740%, while male cases increased by 70% during the same period. Overall, infectious syphilis rates have increased by 124% nationally, from 2016 to 2020. Rates of infectious syphilis have increased in almost all provinces and territories (except for New Brunswick and Nunavut).

Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) - Your reporting responsibilities as a physician or nurse practitioner.

When outdoor air quality is poor, Health Canada recommends that individuals, particularly children, the elderly and those with pre-existing health conditions remain indoors as much as possible. Ensuring good indoor air quality is especially important during periods of poor outdoor air quality.

The following content was created prior to the creation of the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security by one of the entities that became part of the Cyber Centre. This content remains relevant to current discussions about cyber security.

An average of 10 people die by suicide each day in Canada.

A stroke is a sudden loss of brain function caused by a sudden brain blood vessel blockage (ischemic stroke) or rupture (hemorrhagic stroke). Ischemic stroke is the most common type of stroke.

The Public Health Agency of Canada collects information on reported cases of the sexually transmitted infections chlamydia, gonorrhea and infectious syphilis through the Canadian Notifiable Diseases Surveillance System (CNDSS).

Data underlying the publication "Envisioning Contestability Loops: Evaluating the Agonistic Arena as a Generative Metaphor for Public AI."

In this study, we seek to make explicit the guiding ideas underpinning contestable AI research. We construct the generative metaphor of the Agonistic Arena from the political theory of agonistic pluralism. We combine this metaphor and current contestable AI guidelines into an infographic supporting the early-stage concept design of public AI system contestability mechanisms. We evaluate this infographic in five workshops paired with focus groups with a total of 18 practitioners, yielding ten concept designs. Our findings describe mechanisms for contestability proposed by these concept designs. Building on these findings, we subsequently evaluate the efficacy of the Agonistic Arena as a generative metaphor for the design of public AI and identify two competing metaphors at play in this space: the Black Box and the Sovereign.

The TU Delft Human Research Ethics Committee approved this study.

The data consists of:

1. Scans of concept design sketches made by workshop participants (PDF)
2. Transcripts of audio recordings of participants' verbal descriptions of their concept designs (TXT)
3. Workshop schedule (PDF)
4. Concept design summaries (PDF)
5. Creative brief (PDF)
6. Focus group guide (PDF)
7. Workshop schedule (PDF)
