Recently, one of the top international scientific journalsScience MagazineThe Top 10 Scientific Breakthroughs of 2025 Have Been Announced, Including One Champion Award for Scientific Breakthrough and Nine Finalist Awards for Scientific Breakthrough.

Following 2021 "After "AI Predicts Protein Structures" topped the list, AI in life sciences once again made its mark by“Large Language Models Boost Scientific Discovery"EntrySurrounding.

TodayYear,Trained on trillions of words and optimized to simulate human text, a general large language model (LLM）Showed Ph.D. levelOther scientific talents, covering a wide range of scientific fields.

Intelligent Pharmacy Bureau has compiled and organized the relevant content of the selection here, and introduced the main enterprises at home and abroad in this direction for learning and exchange.

Breakthroughs in Multiple Fields: Mathematics, Chemistry, Biology…

In the field of mathematics,DeepMindThe Advanced VersionGemini LLMWinning a gold medal in the IMO (International Mathematical Olympiad), this isThe top mathematics competition for students under 18 worldwide; a 2021 prediction stated that AI would not be able to win the competition until at least 2043.

In addition,OpenAITheGPT-5 AlsoBrought original progress to the combination of number theory and graph theory problems, and was officially listed as one of the paper authors due to writing over 6,000 lines of Lean 4 code.

In the field of chemistry,MetaTheLlama LLMAfter fine-tuning, using only15This experiment run identified the optimal conditions for a previously unreported complex reaction, saving researchers from hundreds of laboratory experiments that would have taken weeks.

In the field of biology, scientists use GoogleDeepMindGemini 2.0 Constructs an AI AgentmicroHO, SuccessInExisting hepatic fibrosisMarked new candidate drugs in the maintenance drugs and reproduced them in bacteria within two days.DNAParasitic transmission, a result that would traditionally take years to achieve.

These enterprises at home and abroad are worth paying attention to.

The activity of large language models has also opened the door to a broader artificial intelligence science gold rush.

Overseas, tech giants and investors have poured hundreds of millions of dollars intoPeriodic Labs、Lila ScienceAndOpenAI for ScienceAnd other derivative enterprises.

In China,XtalPi, BioMap, BaiAo GeometryCompanies such asAI for Science（AI4S）LeadDomain.

It can be seen that the AI4S field is rapidly moving from a cutting-edge concept to a new stage characterized by deep technological integration, high capital focus, and the pursuit of scalable commercial value.
