“While we found that over 90% of older adults who take at least one prescription medicine expect their provider to review their list of medicines at least annually, research has shown this is often not the case,” said Sarah Vordenberg, a clinical associate professor at the U-M College of Pharmacy who worked on the poll.
Majority of people over 50 are open to stopping one or more of their medications, but some of those who already did so didn’t talk with a health provider first

With a big assist from artificial intelligence and a heavy dose of human touch, Tim Cernak's lab at the University of Michigan made a discovery that dramatically speeds up the time-consuming chemical process of building molecules that will be tomorrow's medicines, agrichemicals or materials.
Dr. Cernak’s laboratory was awarded $3 million by Schmidt Futures to develop molecular reaction data using high-throughput experimentation, and the software to process it.
