What the Model Is Trained to Do

The model acts as the tool-calling layer of a biomedical assistant. It reads a user question together with a list of tool schemas and returns a single, well-formed function call. The tools cover three major public databases:

Table with columns: Database, Example capabilities
Database	Example capabilities
NCBI	E-utilities search, fetch, link and summary; BLAST
UniProt	Protein entries, proteomes, taxonomy, diseases, keywords, cross-references
Ensembl	Gene and transcript lookup, sequences, variation, VEP, coordinate mapping, comparative genomics, regulation

It was trained to answer with a short structured call rather than a long reasoning trace, so it should be used with thinking disabled.

Intended Uses

Research on biomedical agents and tool use in language models
The planning step of a bioinformatics pipeline: question, tool call, execution by your own code, results
Prototyping natural-language interfaces to NCBI, UniProt and Ensembl
Benchmarking and comparing biomedical tool-calling approaches

Limitations

Not for clinical use. Outputs must not inform diagnosis or treatment.
Single-step calls only. The model produces one tool call per request. It is not trained for multi-step tool chains and does not read tool outputs to write a final answer.
No abstention. Every training example ends in a tool call, so the model tends to call a tool even when the question is unrelated to biomedicine or no tool applies. Filter out-of-scope questions before calling it.
Limited to the tools it has seen. Behavior on unseen tool schemas or other databases is not guaranteed.
Arguments can be imperfect. The model may add optional parameters that were not requested, or emit placeholder-like values (for example, the string "null"). Validate every call against the tool schema before executing it.
Long tool schemas. Training excluded samples longer than 3,072 tokens, so very long prompts may be handled less reliably.
Non-thinking mode only. Reasoning ability was not trained and is not expected to improve over the base model.

Evaluation

No formal benchmark results are reported yet. In an informal check of nine hand-written biomedical queries (loaded in 4-bit), the model selected the correct tool and included the key values from the question in all nine cases. Each query was presented with the correct tool plus distractor tools. This is a smoke test, not a benchmark, and should not be read as a measure of overall accuracy. A full evaluation on the held-out BioTool test split is planned.

Usage with Transformers

Requires transformers>=5. Load the model, pass your tools in OpenAI-style schema, and disable thinking through the chat template.

python

# pip install -U "transformers>=5" accelerateimport re, json, torchfrom transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForMultimodalLM model_id = "Rumiii/Qwen3.8-27B-ScientificBM"tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)model = AutoModelForMultimodalLM.from_pretrained(    model_id, torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16, device_map="auto") tools = [{    "type": "function",    "function": {        "name": "map_cdna_to_genome",        "description": "Convert from cDNA coordinates to genomic coordinates.",        "parameters": {            "type": "object",            "properties": {                "id": {"type": "string", "description": "An Ensembl stable ID"},                "region": {"type": "string", "description": "Query region"},                "include_original_region": {"type": "boolean", "description": "Include original input region"},                "species": {"type": "string", "description": "Species name/alias"},            },            "required": ["id", "region"],        },    },}] messages = [    {"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant that can call tools. Use the provided tools when appropriate."},    {"role": "user", "content": "Map bases 100 to 200 of transcript ENST00000361390 to genomic coordinates in human."},] inputs = tok.apply_chat_template(    messages, tools=tools, add_generation_prompt=True,    enable_thinking=False, return_tensors="pt", return_dict=True,).to(model.device) out = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=256, do_sample=False)text = tok.decode(out[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[1]:], skip_special_tokens=True)print(text) def parse_call(s):    m = re.search(r"<function=([^>]+)>(.*?)</function>", s, re.S)    if not m:        return None    args = dict(re.findall(r"<parameter=([^>]+)>\s*(.*?)\s*</parameter>", m.group(2), re.S))    return {"name": m.group(1), "arguments": args} print(json.dumps(parse_call(text), indent=2))

The model needs roughly 55 GB of memory in 16-bit. On a smaller GPU it can be loaded with 4-bit quantization, with a small expected change in output quality.

Output format

Tool calls use the Qwen3.8 chat-template format:

text

<tool_call><function=map_cdna_to_genome><parameter=id>ENST00000361390</parameter><parameter=region>100..200</parameter><parameter=species>human</parameter></function></tool_call>

Parsed argument values are returned as strings. Convert them to the types declared in your tool schema (for example booleans and integers) before calling the real API.

Training Data

The model was fine-tuned on BioTool, a biomedical tool-calling dataset of 7,040 query and API-call pairs across 127 tools from NCBI, UniProt and Ensembl. Only the training split was used. The test split was held out. LoRA adapters were trained and merged into the full 16-bit weights.
