> pathml

Full-featured computational pathology toolkit. Use for advanced WSI analysis including multiplexed immunofluorescence (CODEX, Vectra), nucleus segmentation, tissue graph construction, and ML model training on pathology data. Supports 160+ slide formats. For simple tile extraction from H&E slides, histolab may be simpler.

> pdb-database

Access RCSB PDB for 3D protein/nucleic acid structures. Search by text/sequence/structure, download coordinates (PDB/mmCIF), retrieve metadata, for structural biology and drug discovery.

> polars

Fast in-memory DataFrame library for datasets that fit in RAM. Use when pandas is too slow but data still fits in memory. Lazy evaluation, parallel execution, Apache Arrow backend. Best for 1-100GB datasets, ETL pipelines, faster pandas replacement. For larger-than-RAM data use dask or vaex.

> primekg

Query the Precision Medicine Knowledge Graph (PrimeKG) for multiscale biological data including genes, drugs, diseases, phenotypes, and more.

> pubchem-database

> pubmed-database

Direct REST API access to PubMed. Advanced Boolean/MeSH queries, E-utilities API, batch processing, citation management. For Python workflows, prefer biopython (Bio.Entrez). Use this for direct HTTP/REST work or custom API implementations.

> pydicom

Python library for working with DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) files. Use this skill when reading, writing, or modifying medical imaging data in DICOM format, extracting pixel data from medical images (CT, MRI, X-ray, ultrasound), anonymizing DICOM files, working with DICOM metadata and tags, converting DICOM images to other formats, handling compressed DICOM data, or processing medical imaging datasets. Applies to tasks involving medical image analysis, PACS systems, rad

> pyopenms

Complete mass spectrometry analysis platform. Use for proteomics workflows feature detection, peptide identification, protein quantification, and complex LC-MS/MS pipelines. Supports extensive file formats and algorithms. Best for proteomics, comprehensive MS data processing. For simple spectral comparison and metabolite ID use matchms.
