Can Claude Code handle real bioinformatics? Saba and Amulya put it to the test.

Claude code has taken over the tech world like a storm. But how good is Claude code when it comes to Bioinformatics and Computational Biology? In this episode of A Coffee with Compbio, Saba and Amulya take on the task of testing claude code on a simple task: performing QC on a Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC) single cell dataset. They find out the dos and don’t with a tool like claude code while comparing it to how a real bioinformatician would analyze these results. Tune into this episode to learn more about Claude code for Bioinformatics.

Bonus - We share all the results, markdown files and the single cell RNA QC skills markdown file that you can try on your own!
