Researchers have developed MEDA, a new system that combines large language models (LLMs) with symbolic regression to automatically discover Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs) for biological systems. This agentic framework can retrieve background knowledge, define variables, generate constraints, and propose, fit, and evaluate candidate ODEs. Evaluations across various tasks, including model retrieval and extrapolation, show MEDA's ability to recover correct state variables and produce biologically plausible models, highlighting the importance of knowledge-guided formalization and mechanistic constraints.
