What is it?

This AWS sample repository collects healthcare and life sciences (HCLS) AI capabilities in three forms: a catalog of more than 36 reference agents covering drug research, clinical trials, genomics and commercialization, reusable skills that encode domain workflows, and MCP servers that expose biomedical databases and ontologies as callable tools. The agents are built with the Strands framework and designed for deployment on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore.

The main change in direction is making the same domain knowledge usable without deploying a full agent. Skills can be installed into AI coding assistants such as Claude Code and Kiro, and MCP servers can be connected to end-user platforms like Amazon Quick, so researchers can query tools like UniProt, HPO or PubMed in natural language. MCP servers are grouped by deployment model: AgentCore Gateway, AgentCore Runtime, pre-existing AWS servers and third-party public servers.

Some agents depend on shared infrastructure such as Redshift and a Bedrock Knowledge Base, which the repository provides as a CloudFormation stack. The project is explicitly for demonstration only and is not intended for clinical use or production handling of protected health information without a BAA.

Key features

  • 01Catalog of 36+ reference agents built with the Strands framework for AgentCore deployment
  • 02Reusable skills covering genomics, drug discovery, clinical trials, biomarkers, research and terminology
  • 03MCP servers exposing biomedical databases and ontologies such as Biomni, OLS, PubMed and Open Targets
  • 04Setup guides for Claude Code, Kiro and Amazon Quick
  • 05CloudFormation stack for shared infrastructure including Redshift and a Bedrock Knowledge Base

Use cases

  • Letting developers in Claude Code or Kiro query UniProt, HPO or disease-gene associations in natural language
  • Connecting biomedical literature and ontology tools to Amazon Quick for researchers
  • Using the agent templates as a starting point for building HCLS agents on Bedrock AgentCore
  • Studying reference implementations for genomics or clinical trial workflows

Quick start

  1. 1

    Clone the repository

    git clone https://github.com/aws-samples/amazon-bedrock-agents-healthcare-lifesciences.git
  2. 2

    Enter the repository folder

    cd amazon-bedrock-agents-healthcare-lifesciences
  3. 3

    Open the platform-specific setup guide for Claude Code or Kiro

    cat platforms/claude-code/README.md
  4. 4

    Follow the guide to install skills and connect MCP servers

Things to know

  • This solution is for demonstration only and is not for clinical use or production.
  • Some agents need AWS infrastructure such as Redshift and a Bedrock Knowledge Base, which requires a CloudFormation deployment.
  • The repository is being repositioned, so its structure and catalog may change.
