AI Meets Molecular Dynamics - A New Era for Virtual Screening
type: item
description: Over the past two decades, Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations have transitioned from a niche computational tool to a mainstream pillar of modern drug discovery. Today, the accelerating convergence of MD with machine learning, enhanced sampling methods, and experimental structural biology is reshaping the way we identify, refine, and validate drug candidates. A particularly exciting development is the application of enhanced sampling MD to capture the elusive conformational changes of proteins and ligands. While static crystallographic snapshots provide invaluable insights, they often miss hidden allosteric pockets or transient binding pathways. Approaches such as Gaussian accelerated MD, metadynamics, and adaptive sampling now allow researchers to routinely explore events occurring on millisecond timescales, uncovering cryptic binding sites that could not be revealed otherwise. These hidden sites have become fertile ground for the design of allosteric modulators, a rapidly growing class of drugs offering improved selectivity and reduced resistance. Equally transformative is the integration of alchemical free energy calculations into drug discovery pipelines. Once considered computationally prohibitive, Free Energy Perturbation (FEP) methods are now being applied at scale to guide medicinal chemistry decisions with near-experimental accuracy. The combination of GPU acceleration and artificial intelligence has dramatically lowered computational barriers, allowing for the systematic evaluation of hundreds of ligands in days rather than months. MD is also playing a pivotal role in membrane protein drug discovery, particularly for G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), which remain the targets of more than one-third of approved drugs. Long-timescale simulations reveal how lipid composition influences ligand binding and receptor activation, offering new routes to rational drug design. Moreover, the synergy between cryo-electron microscopy, AlphaFold-predicted structures, a…

Exosome-Inspired Nanovesicles for Drug Delivery: Emerging Strategies, Applications, and Future Perspectives
type: item
description: Exosomes are naturally secreted extracellular vesicles (30–150 nm) with unique potential as drug delivery vehicles due to their biocompatibility, stability, and innate targeting ability. However, clinical application of natural exosomes remains limited by challenges in scalability, heterogeneity, and regulatory approval. To overcome these limitations, researchers have developed exosome-inspired nanovesicles (EINVs), which replicate exosomal structure and functionality while offering controllability, reproducibility, and scalability. EINVs can be fabricated using top-down (cell-derived), bottom-up (synthetic), or hybrid approaches, and can be engineered to deliver therapeutic cargo such as small molecules, nucleic acids, proteins, and vaccines. This review provides a detailed overview of EINVs, including their types, fabrication methods, cargo-loading strategies, therapeutic applications, and comparative advantages over natural exosomes. We also discuss challenges in reproducibility, immunogenicity, and regulatory pathways, before highlighting future research directions needed for clinical translation.

Integrative Ayurveda and Gut Microbiome Interventions: Toward Personalized Microbiome-Ayurveda Therapeutics
type: item
description: ABSTRACT The gut microbiome is now widely recognized as a central regulator of human health, influencing digestion, immunity, metabolism, and even neurobehavioral processes through the gut-brain axis. Ayurveda, the ancient Indian medical system, has long emphasized digestion (Agni), personalized constitutions (Prakriti), and rejuvenation therapies (Rasayana) as key determinants of health and disease. In recent years, converging evidence has highlighted remarkable parallels between these traditional frameworks and microbiome science. Emerging studies suggest that Ayurvedic classifications such as Prakriti are associated with specific gut microbial signatures, while classical polyherbal formulations such as Triphala, Tinospora cordifolia (Guduchi), and Withania somnifera (Ashwagandha) exert microbiome-modulating effects in animal models and early human trials. These interventions influence microbial composition, enhance short-chain fatty acid production, and regulate host immunity, providing mechanistic support for long-standing Ayurvedic claims of systemic benefits. This review synthesizes current knowledge linking Ayurveda with microbiome science, outlines mechanistic pathways, discusses translational opportunities in metabolic, gastrointestinal, and neuropsychiatric disorders, and highlights methodological challenges. Finally, it proposes a roadmap integrating Ayurvedic wisdom with multi-omics, computational biology, and precision medicine approaches to advance personalized microbiome-Ayurveda therapeutics.

description: Healthcare data has long been locked in silos—fragmented across electronic health records, registries, laboratories, and insurance systems. This fragmentation slows patient care, complicates compliance, and prevents the timely use of analytics. In the U.S., the adoption of FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) combined with cloud-native data architectures has begun to transform this reality, reducing onboarding time for new data sources, enabling real-time dashboards, and powering AI-ready datasets. Drawing from my experience leading end-to-end healthcare data platforms, this paper presents an architectural approach to unifying disparate healthcare datasets into a FHIR-native clinical data repository deployed on Google Cloud Platform. I illustrate implementation through concrete use cases—preventive screening, immunization compliance, and AI enablement—and share results that demonstrate reduced latency, compliance-by-design, and improved clinical impact. The analysis extends beyond the U.S. by examining India’s digital health journey, where national initiatives like the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) and National Health Claim Exchange (NHCX) are embedding FHIR at the core of a digital public good. By comparing U.S. and Indian contexts, I highlight both challenges and opportunities for scaling interoperability, compliance, and intelligence globally. The paper concludes by looking ahead to future directions—multimodal integration, federated learning, and cross-border health data exchange—positioning FHIR as the foundation for a new era of healthcare intelligence.

FHIR as the Catalyst for Accelerating Data-to-Insight in Healthcare
type: item
description: Healthcare data is often locked in silos—spread across electronic health records (EHRs), registries, laboratories, and claims systems. This lack of interoperability slows down patient care, complicates compliance, and makes it difficult to generate timely insights. The Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) standard, when combined with cloud-native data architectures, provides a path to unify these datasets into formats that are both auditable and analytics-ready. This paper examines how FHIR accelerates the data-to-insight cycle, drawing on practical implementations in the United States where registry onboarding times dropped from weeks to days, dashboards refreshed in under two seconds, and compliance audits passed with zero critical findings. Beyond technical efficiency, these systems supported preventive screening, immunization tracking, and machine-learning models for predictive care. The analysis also reflects on India’s Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) and National Health Claim Exchange (NHCX), where FHIR is being adopted at national scale. Together, these experiences suggest that FHIR can serve as the foundation for more interoperable, intelligent, and patient-centric healthcare systems worldwide.

Chromoblastomycosis: An Update On Pathogenesis, Clinical Features, And Diagnosis
type: item
description: Chromoblastomycosis is a chronic, subcutaneous fungal infection primarily caused by dematiaceous fungi, such as Fonsecaea pedrosoi and Cladophialophora carrionii. It presents as verrucous skin lesions and predominantly affects individuals in tropical and subtropical regions, particularly farmers and laborers. The disease progresses slowly, often leading to significant morbidity due to its complications, including secondary infections and potential squamous cell carcinoma. Diagnosis is challenging and typically involves direct microscopy, histopathology, culture techniques, and emerging molecular methods. Recent advancements in diagnostic tools, such as next-generation sequencing and MALDI-TOF MS, offer promising avenues for improving early detection and species identification. Despite these advances, gaps remain in our understanding of the fungal pathogenesis, immune response, and host-pathogen interaction. This review discusses the etiology, pathogenesis, clinical features, diagnostic methods, and recent advances in the management of chromoblastomycosis. The need for further research, novel diagnostic tools, and global surveillance systems to enhance patient outcomes is emphasized.
