• The tool is pre-configured ‌with more than 60 scientific databases and can render scientific artifacts such as 3D protein structures, ⁠genome browser tracks and chemistry drawings, Anthropic said.

• Claude Science runs on Anthropic’s ⁠existing ‌Claude models, which have ⁠undergone the company’s standard ​responsible ‌scaling and biosecurity evaluations.

• Several ​research ⁠organizations and companies testing the platform in beta reported significant efficiency gains, Anthropic added.
