Anthropic has introduced Claude Science, a new AI workbench for scientists that integrates research tools, produces auditable artifacts, and connects to specialized life sciences models and workflows from NVIDIA. The beta release, announced June 30, gives Claude Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise users access to an application designed to help researchers work across literature review, data analysis, figure generation, manuscript refinement, and computational workflows. Anthropic said Claude Science is available on macOS and Linux, and can run locally, on remote machines over SSH, or through a high-performance computing login node. The app can work with tools such as PubMed, Jupyter, R, cluster terminals, and domain-specific scientific databases, while preserving an auditable history of how outputs were produced. Users interact with a generalist coordinating agent that has access to more than 60 curated skills and connectors configured for genomics, single-cell analysis, proteomics, structural biology, cheminformatics, and other research areas. The system can also use specialist agents created by users, and includes a reviewer agent that checks citations and calculations. When Claude Science generates a figure, it includes the code and environment used to create it, a plain-language description of the process, and the message history leading up to the output. NVIDIA's role comes through its BioNeMo Agent Toolkit, which the chipmaker announced June 23. Anthropic said Claude Science uses BioNeMo Agent Toolkit skills to connect to life sciences models and libraries in BioNeMo, including Evo
