BioEVAL benchmark tests frontier LLMs on bioengineering reasoning
The gap between conceptual recall and experimental reasoning suggests frontier LLMs are still unreliable as lab-design collaborators even when domain quizzes look strong. Subfield-level scores tell bioengineering teams which applications, like diagnostics, are closer to production and which, like synthetic biology, still need human review. Anyone evaluating LLMs for biomedical R&D workflows can use the benchmark as a selection reference.
