Awesome Computational Biology Awesome

A curated collection of databases, software, and papers related to computational biology.

Computational biology involves the development and application of data-analytical and theoretical methods, mathematical modelling and computational simulation techniques to the study of biological, ecological, behavioural, and social systems. — Wikipedia

For treatment-response work, the Dataset Explorer compares curated cell-line, patient, and PDX datasets by year, sample type, perturbation metadata, matched pre/post availability, SMILES coverage, and clinical outcomes.

The Method Explorer compares drug-response and perturbation methods by task, molecular/context representation, unseen-drug support, dose/time conditioning, and patient transfer.

The Foundation Model Explorer compares foundation models by fine-grained modality, parameter count, pretraining scale, species, zero-shot support, weights/code availability, perturbation support, and spatial support.

The Agent Explorer compares agentic AI systems by scientific domain, single- vs multi-agent architecture, tool/code execution, literature and web retrieval, omics and wet-lab support, autonomy, and human-in-the-loop design. The Agent Explorer table is sortable and supports domain, architecture, omics, code-execution, and year filters.

All explorer tables support sortable columns and focused filters for quick comparison, including a Recent (≥2025) toggle.

The Pages home screen also summarizes total resources, profiled datasets, methods, foundation models, agents, and the most common foundation-model modalities.

Chemical and genetic perturbation datasets can be filtered separately in the Dataset Explorer. Genetic screens can also be filtered by CRISPRi, CRISPRa, knockout, enhancer-targeting, combinatorial, or mixed perturbation modes, including mixed-resource collections.

The explorer also includes the eight perturbation datasets used in the Bison unseen-compound benchmark.
