Compute and interpret validated bedside clinical risk scores and pretest probabilities for an INDIVIDUAL patient — pick the right score for the scenario, gather inputs, run the deterministic calculator tool, and read the result against an interpretation table. Covers CHA2DS2-VASc (AF stroke risk), HAS-BLED (bleeding…
AI-driven patient-to-trial matching for precision oncology and rare-disease care. Transforms a patient's molecular profile (mutations, biomarkers, expression) and clinical state into ranked clinical-trial recommendations with evidence tiers. Searches ClinicalTrials.gov, the EU CTIS register (European/EEA trials), AND…
Add custom local tools to ToolUniverse alongside the 1000+ built-in tools. Covers JSON-config tools (simplest, no code), Python class tools (REST/SOAP/GraphQL APIs, computational logic), and best-practices for return schemas. Use for wrapping new APIs, adding domain-specific computations, or contributing tools to the…
Integrate computed statistical results (DEGs, GWAS hits, associations) with biological context from ToolUniverse databases (UniProt, GO, Reactome, ClinVar, OpenTargets). Use for adding gene function/pathway/disease annotations to a result list, building biological narrative around statistical findings, and going…
Universal data access patterns for downloading and parsing scientific data when ToolUniverse tools don't cover the source, only return metadata, or you need bulk records. Use for VCF/h5ad/BAM/SDF/GCT parsing, multi-step API workflows (search to filter to download to parse), thousands of records at once, or sources…
Find and evaluate research datasets for any scientific question. Maps research questions to required study designs (longitudinal vs cross-sectional, observational vs experimental, single-cohort vs multi-cohort). Use when the user asks 'find data about X', 'where can I get data on Y', or needs a specific…
Diagnostic test / biomarker accuracy — sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV, likelihood ratios, accuracy from a 2x2 table; ROC curve, AUC, and the optimal cutoff (Youden) for a continuous biomarker; and post-test probability via Bayes.
