BioChatter
BioChatter is an open-source framework for building, orchestrating, and evaluating large-language-model (LLM) applications in biomedical research. It provides interfaces for structured prompting, tool calling, benchmarking, and integration with knowledge-graph-driven workflows. BioChatter supports both lightweight prototyping and production-level deployment, enabling researchers to develop LLM-powered systems grounded in scientific context and domain knowledge.
The framework emphasises reproducibility, transparency, and modularity. It integrates naturally with AI-ready data and metadata ecosystems and supports interoperability with agentic workflows through tool-calling standards such as the Model Context Protocol (MCP). BioChatter also includes benchmarking components for evaluating correctness, robustness, and adherence to domain constraints, making it suitable for high-stakes biomedical applications.
