This Project Grant award of $305,000.00 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (CFDA 47.084) program aims to revolutionize drug discovery by accelerating molecular dynamics simulations through advanced AI techniques. The project, awarded to Giwotech Inc. in Dorchester, MA, seeks to develop a robust neural network model capable of simulating protein systems up to 500 times faster than current GPU-based classical molecular dynamic simulators while maintaining accuracy and stability. The anticipated technical results include a platform that significantly accelerates drug discovery processes, enabling the exploration of rare molecular events and complex biological systems. This has the potential to reduce drug development timelines by 2-5 years, cut costs by $300 million to $1 billion per approved drug, and increase clinical trial success rates by 20-30%. Subawards are planned for this project.
