This weekly update brings exciting news about AI agents helping scientists make new discoveries.

Scientists are now using smart AI helpers called agentic AI to speed up research work. A company called FutureHouse created AI agents that can do some of the hardest parts of scientific research all by themselves. These AI helpers can read research papers, plan experiments, and even write reports.

Google made a big breakthrough with something called AlphaGenome. This special AI can better understand human DNA, which is like the instruction book for our bodies. This could help doctors find new ways to treat diseases by understanding how our genes work.

Researchers also built a new type of AI that works more like a human brain. This brain-inspired AI is better at solving hard thinking problems than popular AI systems like ChatGPT. It shows that copying how our brains work might make AI even smarter.

Doctors got a new tool to help save hearts. Scientists created a tiny camera that uses AI to spot hidden dangers in blood vessels around the heart. This AI-powered cardiac imaging can see problems that doctors might miss with regular tools.

Another big discovery came from Anthropic, the company that makes Claude AI. Their researchers figured out how to look inside AI brains to see how they think. This breakthrough research helps us understand why AI gives certain answers, which makes AI safer and more trustworthy.

All these discoveries show that AI agents are becoming powerful research partners. They're not just answering questions anymore - they're actively helping scientists discover new things that could help people live better lives.
