What was found

Presented as an end-to-end automated discovery loop with humans executing the physical experiments.

Novelty check

Not independently audited by this registry at time of entry. Novelty check pending.

Caveats

Lab-announced. No independent verification located. A candidate treatment is many years and several trial phases from being a treatment. Held at 'claimed' until outside confirmation.

How this is graded

whataifound.org grades every entry on two axes: verification (how solid the result is, from a machine-checked proof down to refuted) and autonomy (how much the AI did versus its human collaborators). This finding is claimed and ai-led. Full definitions are in the methodology.
