Build a biomedical research agent with Biomni tools and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Gateway
This post is co-authored with the Biomni group from Stanford. Biomedical researchers spend approximately 90% of their time manually processing massive volumes of scattered information. This is evidenced by Genentech’s challenge of processing 38 million biomedical publications in PubMed, public repositories like the Human Protein Atlas, and their internal repository of hundreds of millions of…

The Data Center Resistance Has Arrived
Thomas, who won reelection last week, points to the local pushback against the proposed Prince William Digital Gateway, which would put more than 30 data centers on the edge of a national reserve located in the north of the state. A group of homeowners have challenged the project in court, and a judge voided zoning…
Massive hidden waves are rapidly melting Greenland’s glaciers
Iceberg calving happens when large pieces of ice split from the front of a glacier and fall into the ocean. This natural event is a major contributor to the rapid reduction of ice on the Greenland ice sheet. For the first time, an international team led by the University of Zurich (UZH) and the University…
Scientists uncover hidden atomic process that supercharges propylene production
Many familiar items, from plastic squeeze bottles to outdoor furniture, rely on a process that converts propane into propylene. In 2021, a study in Science showed that chemists could use tandem nanoscale catalysts to merge several steps of this conversion into a single reaction — an approach that increases yield and reduces costs. However, the…

Breakthrough shows light can move atoms in 2D semiconductors
Researchers at Rice University have found that certain atom-thin semiconductors, known as transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), can physically shift their atomic lattice when exposed to light. This newly observed response offers a controllable way to tune the behavior and properties of these ultrathin materials. The phenomenon appears in a subtype of TMDs called Janus materials,…
