Elicit
A powerful tool for AI in Biology
Elicit
An AI research assistant that automates literature reviews, extracting key findings from papers and helping researchers synthesis evidence.
Overview
Elicit uses Large Language Models (LLMs) to help researchers navigate scientific literature. It can find relevant papers without perfect keyword matches and extract specific data points from them automatically.
Workflow
- Literature Review: Ask a question, and Elicit finds papers and summarizes their abstract/findings in a table.
- Data Extraction: Define columns (e.g., "Sample size", "Dosage") and Elicit extracts this info from PDFs.
- Synthesis: Generates summaries of the top papers to answer your research question.
