What this agent helps you do
A Life Science Research and Exa literature discovery agent broadens source discovery while keeping scientific synthesis structured. Life Science Research supplies domain-specific databases, synthesis patterns, and evidence caveats, while Exa finds relevant web sources, papers, preprints, datasets, and institutional pages.
When to use this workflow
Use it for early research scoping, variant investigation, target reviews, hypothesis generation, or literature searches where discovery needs domain-aware caveats.
How Life Science Research and Exa give the agent context
Connect both plugins and define the research question, entity, variant, pathway, target, or disease area. Exa should expand the source set; Life Science Research should evaluate evidence quality and organize findings around the biomedical question.
Example starter prompt
Use Exa to discover relevant sources for this biomedical question, then use Life Science Research workflows to synthesize evidence, label caveats, and prepare a cautious literature brief with follow-up searches.Suggested workflow steps
Start with the scientific question and inclusion criteria. Have the agent discover sources with Exa, identify peer-reviewed vs. non-peer-reviewed material, check domain databases where appropriate, and group findings by evidence strength.
Expected handoff
Ask for source links, evidence strength, contradictions, database findings, caveats, preprint labels, weak evidence warnings, and recommended follow-up searches.
