KICC Researcher Boris Bollliet is amongst the team that led developed an AI-powered ‘scientific assistant’ developed an AI-powered ‘scientific assistant’ designed to accelerate the scientific process by helping them identify new research questions, analyse and interpret data, and produce scientific documents.
The tool, called Denario, uses large language models to help scientists with tasks from developing new hypotheses to compiling manuscripts. The team hopes Denario will make research faster, more dynamic and more interdisciplinary.
Denario’s development was led by Dr Boris Bolliet from Cambridge, Dr Pablo Villanueva Domingo from the Autonomous University of Barcelona and Villaescusa-Navarro, with a team that included researchers from astrophysics, biology, biophysics, chemistry, material science, neuroscience, mathematics, machine learning, quantum physics and philosophy.
“We designed Denario with a modular architecture so that users can choose which of its components best fit their research, whether that’s coding, exploring research ideas, summarising results or something else,” said Bolliet, from Cambridge’s Cavendish Laboratory. Other members of KICC that participated in the development are, Licong Xu, Inigo Zubeldia and Miles Cranmer.
