Bio-Research Skills
AI skills for literature search, genomics analysis, and target prioritization in life sciences R&D.
On this page
Bio-research skills accelerate the information-heavy work in life sciences R&D -- searching literature, analyzing genomics data, prioritizing targets, and monitoring clinical trials. They connect to scientific databases and research platforms to pull current data and produce structured analysis.
Instead of spending hours reviewing papers or manually cross-referencing gene expression datasets, a bio-research skill processes the data and returns a synthesized summary with citations and confidence assessments.
What you can do
- Search and synthesize scientific literature across journals and preprint servers
- Analyze genomics data including gene expression profiles, variant annotations, and pathway enrichment
- Prioritize drug targets based on evidence scores, druggability assessments, and competitive landscape
- Monitor clinical trials for relevant updates, new enrollments, and published results
- Evaluate compounds by pulling activity data, ADMET predictions, and structure-activity relationships
- Manage research data by organizing experimental results and maintaining structured lab notebooks
Pre-built skills
| Skill | Description |
|---|---|
| Literature Reviewer | Searches PubMed and preprint servers for relevant papers, extracts key findings, and produces a structured literature review with citations. |
| Genomics Analyst | Processes gene lists or expression data and returns pathway enrichment analysis, variant annotations, and biological interpretation. |
| Target Prioritizer | Evaluates candidate drug targets against evidence from genetic associations, expression data, and existing drug programs to produce a ranked shortlist. |
| Trial Monitor | Tracks clinical trials by indication, sponsor, or target and delivers updates on status changes, results, and new registrations. |
Connectors
Bio-research skills work best when connected to scientific data sources. Supported connectors include PubMed, BioRender, bioRxiv, ClinicalTrials.gov, ChEMBL, Synapse, Wiley, Owkin, Open Targets, and Benchling.
Connect them through the dashboard under Connectors to give your skills access to the databases and platforms your research team relies on.
