AI-driven Pathogen Genomics (PathGennie)

In December 2025, the Ministry of Science and Technology unveiled PathGennie, a new open-source computational software that significantly accelerates drug discovery by accurately simulating drug–protein unbinding.

  • Developed at S. N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences, Kolkata, PathGennie (2026) is an AI-enabled computational framework designed for simulating molecular interactions, supporting drug discovery and pathogen-related genomic research.

Mode of Working

  • Instead of forcing molecules to move, the software lets them move naturally.
  • It runs many tiny, short simulations at the same time to see which ones head in the right direction.
  • Only the useful paths are continued, while the rest are stopped, ....
