A Google parent-owned startup is poised to begin clinical trials of its first artificial intelligence-designed drug by year-end, marking a significant milestone in pharmaceutical development as major tech companies increasingly invest in AI-powered healthcare solutions.
What Happened: Isomorphic Labs, an Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) subsidiary, is targeting major disease areas including oncology, cardiovascular conditions, and neurodegeneration, founder Demis Hassabis <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/41b51d07-0754-4ffd-a8f9-737e1b1f0c2e">told</a> Financial Times, speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos.

&#8220;It usually takes an average of five to 10 years to discover one drug. And maybe we could accelerate that 10 times, which would be an incredible revolution in human health,&#8221; said Hassabis, who recently received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

The sector has attracted significant attention from investors, though companies like Crispr Therapeutics AG and Intellia Therapeutics Inc. have shown considerable market volatility.
Isomorphic Labs, spun out from Google DeepMind in 2021, represents a growing trend of tech giants leveraging AI to streamline the traditionally lengthy and expensive drug development process.

Google Parent-Owned Startup To Launch AI-Designed Drug Trials By Year-End, Partnering With Eli Lilly And Novartis To Tackle Major Diseases

Elon Musk&#8217;s rocket manufacturing company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/space/25/01/42755343/spacex-hits-new-milestone-in-2024-with-134-launches">SpaceX</a> on Tuesday launched its Falcon 9 rocket with 27 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit from California and subsequently landed a Falcon 9 rocket booster for the 400th time.
What Happened: Following separation from the rocket&#8217;s second stage, the booster that supported the Starlink mission landed back on Earth, enabling the company to reuse it for another mission.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Falcon lands for the 400th time! <a href="https://t.co/pwNCwAb3SK">pic.twitter.com/pwNCwAb3SK</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
The booster that supported the mission on Tuesday previously launched Oneweb 4, USSF-62, and other Starlink missions. The maximum number of missions to be flown by one Falcon 9 booster to date is 25.
Why It Matters: SpaceX is attempting to make its rockets reusable to bring down the cost of spaceflight as the cost of the first stage constitutes the majority of the cost of a new rocket. 
In July 2023, Musk warned that rocket manufacturers will&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/07/33383081/elon-musk-tells-rocket-makers-go-all-in-on-reusability-or-be-utterly-uncompetitive" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">need to go all-in on reusability</a>&nbsp;or risk being uncompetitive.
&#8220;Rockets are no different from other transport technologies, just harder to make reusable. No one would buy a single-use airplane, car, or even bicycle! You&#8217;d need to tow another car just for the return trip,&#8221; Musk said.
While the Falcon 9 is only partially reusable, SpaceX is attempting to make its Starship launch vehicle wholly reusable, landing back not just the booster but also the spacecraft. However, the Starship is currently only in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43052113/bezos-musk-extend-cordial-support-despite-building-rivalry-between-their-rocket-companies">testing and development phase. </a>
