AI agents connected to scientific tools for proteomics research

A project developed during the OSI Hackathon 2026 aimed to connect AI agents with scientific tools, specifically for single-cell proteomics. The team created an MCP server called scp-graphfs-mcp, which allows AI agents like Claude Code and GitHub Copilot CLI to interact with complex scientific data and knowledge graphs. This setup facilitates reproducible AI-agent workflows by standardizing the interaction between AI models and scientific operations. AI

IMPACT Enables more sophisticated and reproducible AI-driven scientific research by integrating AI agents with specialized tools and data.
