Step 1: Investigate the interaction between two biomarkers of interest
To explore whether two biomarkers interact with each other or not, use Causaly Discover in the Causaly home page (Figure 1).

Begin your search by typing your question into the Causaly Discover search bar in natural language (Figure 2). “Does BRCA2 interact with RAD51?” will be used as an example (link).

Click "Search" or hit Enter on your keyboard to run the search, which will direct you to the Causaly Discover results page.
Causaly Discover offers an AI-generated summary, complete with in-line citations for transparency into the results, based on the top 20 articles. You can scroll down to view all the documents retrieved in response to your search query.
TIP! To refine the results based on your research objectives and/or quality standards, use the filters panel. Once you apply filters, the AI-generated summary will be automatically updated to reflect your filter selections.
Step 2: Refine your results to a specific disease context.
To look for the interaction between two biomarkers in a specific disease context, you can rephrase your question in the Discover search bar or ask a follow-up question on the Copilot side bar (Figure 3).
