Stanford Professor's AI 'Biomni' Transforms Plain Language into Research Workflows
Hızlı Bakış
- Stanford professor Jure Leskovec's AI system, Biomni, translates plain-language requests into complex research workflows for biologists.
- It searches databases, writes code, identifies genes, and generates lab instructions, with over 10,000 scientists globally using the open-source tool.

Stanford professor Jure Leskovec developed an AI system named Biomni that can translate plain-language requests into research workflows for biologists. The system is available as open-source.
Jure Leskovec, a Stanford computer science professor who supervised the work, said the agent had been released as an open-source system with a web interface so that biologists could use it without writing code.
“We have over 10,000 scientists all over the world using the system for their everyday tasks,” Leskovec said on Tuesday.
In the journal Science this week, the researcher said the system, called Biomni, could turn a plain-language request into an entire research workflow – from searching databases and writing analysis code to finding disease-causing genes and even creating step-by-step lab instructions that scientists successfully followed in real experiments.
In one test, the virtual biologist was given hundreds of raw files collected from wearable devices and asked to look for biological patterns. It cleaned the data, ran the analysis and generated new hypotheses.
