Description: Computer generated AIDS-TherapyResearch Field: Computer Sciences/Mathematics/Complex SystemsSince AIDS was first detected in the 1980's, the HIV virus has changed constantly, developing resistance to newly developed combinations of drugs that until recently proved effective. Now a computer programme developed by the Max Planck Institute for Computer Science can calculate which combinations of drugs are still effective.A patient's doctor only needs the genetic code, which can be assessed through blood samples. This information is then passed on to the computer via the internet. The service is free of charge. And the institute's software can even predict how long certain medication will prove effective for a specific patient.Copyright: © Deutsche WellePublished at ScienceStage.com in cooperation with the Max Planck Society.Involved Institutes: Max-Planck-Institute for Informatics
