BaseCamp --- An Agentic AI Framework for Automating DNA Sequencing Data Pipelines

BaseCamp is an agentic AI framework that automates the decision layer of DNA sequencing pipelines by deploying six specialized AI agents for tasks such as sample intake, quality control, alignment, variant calling, annotation, cross‑stage monitoring, and reporting. The agents rely on established bioinformatics tools for actual sequence analysis, while using fine‑tuned, domain‑specialized large language models to select, configure, and interpret these tools’ outputs, ensuring reproducibility and local data privacy. Evaluation demonstrates that the agents’ configurations align with expert practice, provide an explicit filtering ledger for traceability, and detect anomalies that traditional monitoring may miss.

A case study of evaluating AI agents on a neuroscience data-to-discovery pipeline

arXiv:2606. 07718v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agentic AI tools offer a promising path to automating software development bottlenecks in scientific research pipelines, particularly for stages that take domain experts days to months to build, where scientists care about correctness and robustness, not implementation details.

Prompt-to-Paper: Agentic AI System for Bioinformatics

arXiv:2607. 05456v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While recent advances in large language models have enabled end-to-end automated manuscript generation, existing systems suffer from three critical deficiencies: (i) generated claims are not deterministically grounded in verifiable literature, (ii) experimental results are frequently fabricated rather than executed, and (iii) there exists no standardized, multi-dimensional framework to assess whether AI-generated manuscripts meet the quality and rigor required for real-world publication.

BioMedArena: An Open-source Toolkit for Building and Evaluating Biomedical Deep Research Agents

arXiv:2605. 06177v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Reproducing and comparing deep research agents today is hard: the same backbone evaluated on the same benchmark can report different accuracies across papers because the harness and tool registry differ, and integrating a new model into a comparable evaluation surface costs weeks of model-specific engineering.
