PubMed, AI and scientific intelligence: towards a new era in medical research
04/10/2025
Artificial intelligence is revolutionising the world of scientific research. By searching, analysing and sorting immense volumes of data, AI is enabling researchers and healthcare professionals to access relevant information more quickly, extract the essential ideas and discover new connections. Gone are the days when you had to sift through hundreds of articles to find a specific piece of information: today, AI does the sorting for you. From intelligent search engines to abstract generators and personalised article recommendations, let's find out how these technologies are transforming access to scientific literature and which are the most effective tools to adopt.
Access to knowledge is a constant challenge for researchers and healthcare professionals. Every day, thousands of scientific articles are published, making it complex to keep track of new advances. AI plays a key role in modern scientific research by providing innovative solutions that simplify access to knowledge and optimise data analysis.
Here are some of the major impacts of AI in this field:
AI-based search engines, such as Semantic Scholar or Archie (a PaperDoc feature), use advanced algorithms to understand the context of user queries. These search engines don't just provide results based on keywords, but analyse the content to deliver the most relevant results, giving users quick access to the most useful articles for their studies.
An example of AI in action: When a researcher explores the impact of AI in medicine, intelligent scientific search engines like Archie (PaperDoc's search engine) analyse the context of their query to identify the most relevant publications, even without an exact match of keywords. As well as suggesting the most appropriate articles, Archie automatically generates a summary, offering a clear and concise answer without the need for exhaustive reading.
AI can process massive amounts of data to extract essential information. This enables users to synthesise complex information and speed up the conclusions drawn from their analyses.
Example: Algorithms like those used by PaperDoc can analyse hundreds of scientific articles on a specific subject and propose a summary of current knowledge, saving researchers or healthcare professionals precious time.
Healthcare professionals and researchers can now generate automatic summaries of scientific articles thanks to tools like PaperDoc.AI, which use AI to condense complex articles into key points. This makes it possible to quickly understand articles without having to read them in full.
PaperDoc is an artificial intelligence platform made in France, designed for researchers and healthcare professionals. It provides access to a database of more than 200 million scientific articles, while offering advanced features to optimise searches and analysis of publications.
Thanks to these powerful tools and its vast repository of scientific articles, PaperDoc enables healthcare professionals and researchers to work more efficiently and accurately, with easy access to the most recent and relevant scientific literature for their research
Consensus is an innovative tool that uses artificial intelligence to synthesise research articles and determine whether a consensus exists on a given scientific question. This tool enables researchers to quickly obtain an overview of the points of agreement in the scientific literature, by analysing a large number of studies on a particular subject. This helps to clarify scientific debates and identify emerging trends in complex areas of research.
Perplexity is an AI-based tool that enables in-depth scientific research with personalised answers, providing ultra-targeted results thanks to sophisticated algorithms. This tool is particularly useful for researchers who need to find precise answers to specific scientific questions, by obtaining reliable and relevant sources quickly.
Semantic Scholar is an AI search engine designed specifically for scientific literature. It understands the context of searches and suggests relevant articles, including those that might not be immediately visible in a traditional search.
AI makes it possible to process and analyse large quantities of data at a speed unmatched by traditional methods. This frees up time for researchers and healthcare professionals, who can concentrate on interpreting results rather than on repetitive tasks.
AI algorithms are able to detect subtle correlations in data, offering greater precision in search results. This is particularly important for complex research requiring in-depth data analysis.
AI tools make access to scientific information easier and more intuitive. You no longer have to sift through thousands of articles to find what's relevant. By using AI search engines that search through millions of scientific articles, you get direct, personalised results that match your needs.
AI is revolutionising access to scientific articles by making research faster, more accurate and more accessible. Tools such as PaperDoc, Consensus, and Perplexity offer researchers powerful solutions to improve their productivity and efficiency. By adopting these technologies, researchers and healthcare professionals can focus on what matters most: creating new knowledge and discovering innovative solutions.
As AI continues to develop, it is clear that it will play an increasingly central role in scientific research. For researchers and healthcare professionals, adopting these tools is essential to staying at the forefront of innovation and driving science forward.
