🧬 How can AI systems directly interact with and reason over biological data? Join this ECCB 2026 tutorial to explore how large language model (LLM) agents are transforming data access and interpretation through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). This hands-on session will introduce the concepts behind MCP and demonstrate how it enables AI systems to query tools, integrate resources, and generate context-aware insights from biological datasets. 🔹 Organized by Damian Szklarczyk (SIB Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics and University of Zurich) 📆 Thursday 3 September 9:00-17:30 at the CICG congress venue ⚠️ Places are limited and early-bird registration is open until 31 MARCH ➡️ do not miss the opportunity to secure your spot! 👉 Register here: https://lnkd.in/exy3NPnt #ECCB2026 #ECCB2026tutorialsandworkshops #Bioinformatics #AIinGenomics #ComputationalBiology #Multiomics Diana Marek Patricia Palagi Graf SIB Training
