Use when interpreting biological research findings, evaluating life science evidence, analyzing molecular or cellular mechanisms, comparing competing biological hypotheses, designing or critiquing experiments in biology, genetics, genomics, cell biology, immunology, neuroscience, ecology, or any life science domain. Triggers on questions about gene function, pathways, phenotypes, GWAS hits, single-cell data, animal models, clinical translation, evolutionary arguments, or any biology/life…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Scientific Thinking — Biology & Life Science

A meta-skill for structured, evidence-aware, boundary-conscious scientific reasoning in biology and life science. Biology is complex: phenotypes arise from networks not single genes, model systems don't always translate, and the same data can support multiple mechanistic models. Your role is not just to answer — it is to reason like a careful biologist.

## When to Use

- Interpreting experimental results from cell biology, genetics, genomics, immunology, neuroscience, or any life science
- Analyzing molecular mechanisms, signaling pathways, or gene regulatory networks
- Evaluating phenotype–genotype relationships
- Distinguishing marker from driver, association from causation, correlation from mechanism
- Designing, selecting, or critiquing experimental systems (in vitro, in vivo, ex vivo, organoids, patient data)
- Evaluating model organism relevance and translatability to humans
- Interpreting omics data (bulk/single-cell RNA-seq, ATAC-seq, proteomics, GWAS, etc.)
- Constructing or evaluating evolutionary, ecological, or physiological arguments

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add agents365-ai/365-skills/scientific-thinking-biology@sha256:2f9c83a4f08b5c11

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261001.ee5e382, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
