AI Research & Education Solutions

Scan has extensive experience of designing and developing AI solutions for a wide range of education providers, universities and research institutions, helping to further academic discovery and scientific advancements.

Scan have been not only supporting the decisions of what solutions we should embed in our NHS
Trust, but to put them together to build a turnkey solution.- Sebastien Ourselin - Head of Biomedical Engineering & Imaging Sciences - KCL

Our AI-Enhanced Research & Education Solutions

Genomics

AI reduces the time and expense associated with genomic sequencing. It also decreases errors, improving the accuracy of genome analysis, helping to swiftly and correctly pinpoint genetic variations related to diseases or traits. AI-accelerated genomic data analysis can be used to personalise medicines based on a patient's genetics.

Drug Discovery

AI and accelerated computing enables millions of drug candidates to be screened against a rigid protein target. Additionally, GPU-powered molecular dynamics frameworks can simulate the fundamental mechanisms of cells and calculate how strongly a candidate drug will bind to its intended protein target.

Natural Language Processing

NLP is a type of AI that aims to understand human language input in the form of text or speech. Combining multiple disciplines, including computation linguistics, machine learning, deep learning and statistics, it accelerates real-time applications such as virtual assistants, call centre agents and video conferencing.

Federated Learning

Federated Learning is a decentralised approach to training AI models. Instead of requiring data to be transferred from local to global servers, the model is run locally at the edge, keeping the integrity of sensitive data. This increases security and privacy, as the local data remains private and is ultimately anonymised in the global model.
