Proud to announce BioMCP, an open source Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for biomedical research AI assistants and agents. BioMCP searches and retrieves clinical trials, PubMed articles and genomic variants to provide up-to-date and relevant context to an LLM.

Chat with any open source repo easily. Gitingest (free online tool) turns any GitHub repository into a single markdown file for pasting. Claude artifacts makes this 300k token output pretty easy to work with.

Nice paper from Databricks Mosaic Research that analyzes RAG performance with long-context LLMs. Lots of great data and insights about the leading models and how their performance improves or degrades as more content is added to the context window.

GLiREL is a zero-shot Relation Extraction (RE) model capable of classifying unseen relations given the entities within a text.

Builds upon GLiNER which does 0-shot Named Entity Recognition (NER).
