Description
Eleni Adamidi and eight colleagues mapped in 2026 how Greece uses artificial intelligence in the life sciences, against global patterns. Adoption of AI in biology and medicine varies widely by country, yet national strengths and gaps are rarely measured. The team harvested 916,824 AI-related life-science papers from OpenAlex and PubMed, tagged each with Medical Subject Headings, and compared topics in papers linked to a Greek institution with those from elsewhere.
Greek-affiliated work concentrated on methodology and algorithm development, while the global corpus centred on disease-focused, organism-centred, and clinical applications. Contrasts across three levels of the subject hierarchy showed clear Greek strengths in machine learning and analytical tools, alongside under-representation in translational, patient-centred research. The study pairs bibliometric evidence with community perspectives to give a full overview of Greek AI activity, pointing funders toward translation as the gap worth closing.
