By acknowledging what we did right, leaning into our humanity, and utilizing the tools we have at our disposal to predict the next global health crisis, we can do more than survive—we can adapt and thrive. But we have to be ready.
So, how exactly does the biotech industry prepare for the next pandemic? By knowing what is coming the next time around and utilizing the lessons learned from COVID-19.
We need to observe and comprehend how our bodies and our brains react to new and intensified stresses. With this knowledge, we can improve our ability to recognize potential threats, make predictions, take precautions, and save lives. Beyond understanding our biology, we need to use all the weapons in our arsenal, and one of our best defenses, consistently proven in the pandemic, is artificial intelligence (AI).

Utilizing AI-powered biotech to model out what these new attacks are going to look like gives us an upper hand in preparedness. When we know what’s coming, we can work on developing a counterattack, or at least figure out how to get out of the way.
