M3OS: A Monte Carlo Graph Search-Orchestrated Multi-Agent LLM System for Evidence-Traced Molecular Optimization

M3OS is a multi‑agent large‑language‑model system that separates molecular‑design reasoning from optimization‑state management using a Monte Carlo graph search. The system maintains a persistent graph of evaluated candidates, transformations, and evidence, while LLM agents use role‑specific contexts to generate and edit molecules with tool‑driven and knowledge‑guided approaches. Across three benchmarks, M3OS outperforms baselines, demonstrating the benefit of persistent search state, specialized agents, and controlled execution for multi‑constraint molecular optimization.

DrugGen 2: A disease-aware language model for enhancing drug discovery

arXiv:2607. 08404v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current computational approaches for drug design typically focus on generating molecules conditioned on specific targets or general molecular properties, often neglecting the influence of disease context on target behavior and therapeutic outcomes.

A Multitask Large Reasoning Model for Molecular Science

The paper introduces a multitask large reasoning model for molecular science that incorporates chemical knowledge via a multispecialist architecture, chain-of-thought supervision, and molecule-informed reinforcement learning. It coordinates prediction and inference specialists across ten molecular tasks—including description, generation, nomenclature translation, property prediction, and reaction prediction—using task-conditioned routing. The model surpasses more than 20 general-purpose and molecular large language models, improving aggregate performance by 50.3% and outperforming leading multitask baselines on most tasks, while maintaining interpretable chemical inference and demonstrating a workflow for CNS candidate generation and retrosynthetic planning.

Designing a Robust LLM-Based Evaluation System for Agentic AI in Drug Discovery Through Human Alignment

The paper introduces an LLM-as-a-Judge framework for evaluating the outputs of an agentic drug discovery assistant, ChatInvent, deployed at AstraZeneca. It defines four quality dimensions—Completeness, Relevancy, Structural Clarity, and Scope Adherence—alongside deterministic Tool Call Correctness checks, and validates the judge against five expert annotators. After optimizing the best-performing judge with few-shot demonstrations, alignment with human majority votes improves from 0.80 to 0.86, and the framework reveals that informal question phrasing does not degrade output quality.
