1/2 🎬 That's a wrap on our intro to PDBe MCP Servers. All the videos are now on YouTube - install, usage, Graph Server, and Claude examples - in one playlist. 🎥 www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

🚀 The PDBe Graph Server is built for power users. Explore the PDBe-KB Neo4j schema with AI-assisted Cypher generation - including nodes, and edges. 🔗 Graph DB: ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/msd/graphdb/ #Neo4j #KnowledgeGraph #PDBe #AI #Cypher

🧬 Claude isn't the only AI that can query PDBe. PDBe MCP Servers work with other AI clients too, such as Google Antigravity. You only need one protocol for any MCP-compatible AI. 🎥 Watch the install walkthrough 👇 📦 github.com/PDBeurope/PDBe-MCP-Servers #PDBe #MCP #GoogleAntigravity #AI

🧬 New tutorial video drop from @EMBL_EBI! "Similarity Metrics & Confidence Scores in Protein Structure Prediction" by Dr. Yonathan Goldtzvik- Essential for anyone using #AlphaFold 🎯 🎥 youtu.be/dVFHr0ZV4-0 #StructuralBiology #Bioinformatics #ProteinStructure #pLDDT
