A decade of microbiological research was unraveled in just 48 hours by an artificial intelligence (AI) tool. Professor José Penadés and his team at Imperial College London had spent years investigating why certain bacteria become resistant to antibiotics.

Built on Google’s Gemini AI assistant, the tool promises to make research faster and more efficient. But the company acknowledges the need for safeguards against misuse.

Professor José R Penadés told the BBC that Google's tool reached the same hypothesis that his team had – that superbugs can create a tail that

A complex problem that took microbiologists a decade to get to the bottom of has been solved in just two days by a new artificial intelligence (AI) tool. Professor José R Penadés and his team at Imperial College London had spent years working out and proving why some superbugs are immune to antibiotics.

Professor José R. Penadés and his team at Imperial College London wrestled with a baffling scientific puzzle—how do some superbugs become resistant to antibiotics? The answer, painstakingly pieced together over years,
