Applying the new drugs to cultures of human cells and observing the effects.
Explanation: testing in cell cultures (in vitro) does not expose human subjects to the drug, so it avoids risking human health. The other options still involve humans (computer selection/notification doesn’t eliminate risk; tiny doses or short exposure can still cause harm; testing only on desperate volunteers still poses risk and raises ethical concerns). Note that in vitro testing cannot fully predict whole‑body effects, so human trials are usually needed later with strict safeguards.
