Hu Yao said.

In terms of using the water drop medical data center to help patients find clinical innovative drugs, Hu Yao said that in recent years, China's innovative drugs have developed very well, many research centers have developed a large number of new drugs, and many clinical efficiencies are decreasing significantly, but there is a key problem, and many clinical projects cannot find suitable patients.

The advantage of water drops is based on the use of algorithms + manual operation scoring in medical data centers to match items for patients and improve the efficiency of treatment. ”
