# Frontier AI and Deep Scientific Expertise Can Bring Medicines to Patients Faster by Loic Giraud
> "AI is already changing how we discover and develop medicines at Novo. With Claude Science in our R&D workflows, Anthropic's frontier models in our software development, lab in the loop research in drug discovery, and Anthropic engineers working alongside our scientists, we have seen what is possible when frontier AI meets deep scientific expertise. We're excited to join the Claude Frontier Academy and the FDE Residency, giving our engineers the same hands on training and expertise behind Anthropic's most successful deployments, so together we can bring the next generation of medicines to patients faster."
