Shrinidhi Nathany on Simulating Cells and Why It is a Game Changer
Shrinidhi Nathany, Consultant Molecular Hematology and Oncology at Fortis Memorial, posted on LinkedIn:
“Thought provoking read
What if we could simulate the cell?
For years, the idea of a virtual cell sounded unrealistic. Cells are complex, dynamic, and shaped by countless molecular interactions. Today, that view is changing.
With advances in single cell biology, spatial omics, perturbation data, and AI, scientists are beginning to build models that can predict how cells respond to genes, drugs, and environmental signals. These are not perfect replicas, but practical, predictive systems.
Virtual cells could transform drug discovery and precision medicine by allowing millions of experiments to be run computationally, guiding lab work, improving patient selection, and helping match the right therapy to the right patient.
The challenges are real, especially data scale and quality. But the direction is clear.
Making the cell predictable would redefine how we study disease and design treatments. The virtual cell is no longer science fiction. It is becoming a new tool for biology.”
