Claim 73 · ai-for-science · connection

Li et al. 2025 explicitly periodize the field, naming Boiko et al. 2023's Coscientist and Huang et al. 2025's Biomni as markers of a 'scientific-agent phase' beginning in 2023 — framing these independently developed systems as milestones of a single transition to autonomous experiment design and workflow iteration.

Partly supported

E46 supports Li et al.'s periodization naming Coscientist and Biomni within a scientific-agent phase beginning in 2023 characterized by autonomous experiment design and workflow iteration, but the cited text neither attributes Biomni to Huang et al. 2025 nor describes these systems as independently developed.

    (4) Since 2023, Sci-LLMs have advanced into the scientific-agent phase. Systems built around models such as Coscientist (an autonomous chemistry research agent), Biomni (a biomedical multi-agent system), and InternAgent (a general scientific agent framework) have begun to take shape. In this stage, AI no longer merely understands the concepts of science - it can autonomously design experiments, generate research papers, and iterate on research workflows. Page 6 of 13 Li et al.
