Abstract
Introduction: Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become a key tool for the acceleration of scientific discovery, from accelerated drug discovery through automatic-robotic lab to the discovery of new materials that can help reduce air pollution. Israel is blessed with a unique combination of strong expertise in health and biological sciences, as well as advanced AI technologies. Hence, Israel can potentially become a leader in AI based biomedical scientific discovery. This article compares Israel's achievements in AI and in biomedical scientific discovery with the achievements of selected leading nations. It also highlights opportunities and barriers that Israel encounters in its path to becoming a world-wide leader in AI-based biomedical scientific discovery.
