Spatial biology isn’t about picking a winner, it’s about building a toolkit.

From Stereo-seq + MERFISH convergence to DISCO’s targeted isolation and Xenium customization, the field is maturing into something more practical: knowing which tool to use, and when.

That shift, from platform wars to methodological fluency, is what will actually move biology forward. Read more in our blog: https://bridgeinformatics.com/meet-the-researchers-building-canadas-spatial-biology-toolkit/

As bioinformaticians, we’ve all used AI to *suggest* pipelines, debug code, or summarize papers, but what happens when it starts actually *executing* parts of our workflows?

Today's blog dives into the shift from conversational AI to structured, skills-based agents that can trigger pipelines, validate inputs, and handle failures, while staying within the constraints we care about: reproducibility, auditability, and governance.

The interesting part isn’t just capability. It’s control. These systems don’t have “god mode”; they operate within the same permissioned environments we already trust.
