## π Quick Start
### Prerequisites
- Node.js 18+
- npm or yarn
### Installation
```bash
git clone https://github.com/eugenezhou/medical-research-mcp-suite.git
cd medical-research-mcp-suite
npm install
cp .env.example .env
npm run build
```
### Usage Options
#### 1. MCP Server (Claude Desktop Integration)
```bash
npm run dev
```
Add to your `claude_desktop_config.json`:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"medical-research": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/path/to/medical-research-mcp-suite/dist/index.js"]
}
}
}
```
#### 2. Web API Server
```bash
npm run web
# Visit http://localhost:3000
```
#### 3. Test the System
```bash
npm test
./test-mcp.sh
```
## π API Examples
### Comprehensive Drug Analysis (π₯ **The Magic!**)
```typescript
// Cross-database analysis combining trials + literature + FDA data
const analysis = await comprehensiveAnalysis({
drugName: "pembrolizumab",
condition: "lung cancer",
analysisDepth: "comprehensive"
});
// Returns:
// - Risk assessment scoring
// - Market opportunity analysis
// - Competitive landscape
// - Strategic recommendations
```
### Clinical Trials Search
```typescript
const trials = await searchTrials({
condition: "diabetes",
intervention: "metformin",
pageSize: 20
});
// Returns real-time data from 400k+ studies
```
### FDA Drug Safety Analysis
```typescript
const safety = await drugSafetyProfile({
drugName: "metformin",
includeTrials: true,
includeFDA: true
});
// Returns comprehensive safety analysis
```
## π Available Tools
### Single API Tools
- `ct_search_trials` - Enhanced clinical trial search
- `ct_get_study` - Detailed study information by NCT ID
- `pm_search_papers` - PubMed literature discovery
- `fda_search_drugs` - FDA drug database search
- `fda_adverse_events` - Adverse event analysis
### Cross-API Intelligence Tools (π₯ **Unique Value**)
- `research_comprehensive_analysis` - **Multi-database strategic analysis**
- `research_drug_safety_profile` - **Safety analysis across all sources**
- `research_competitive_landscape` - **Market intelligence and pipeline analysis**
## π’ Enterprise Value Proposition
**What would take medical researchers HOURS β completed in SECONDS:**
| Traditional Approach | With MCP Suite |
|---------------------|----------------|
| β° 4+ hours manual research | β‘ 30 seconds automated |
| π Single database queries | π Cross-database correlation |
| π Manual data compilation | π€ AI-enhanced insights |
| π Subjective risk assessment | π Algorithmic scoring |
| π Limited competitive view | π Complete market landscape |
**ROI Calculation:** Save 20+ research hours per analysis = $2,000+ in consultant time
## π§ Configuration
### Environment Setup
```bash
# Optional - APIs work without keys but with rate limits
PUBMED_API_KEY=your_pubmed_api_key_here
FDA_API_KEY=your_fda_api_key_here
# Performance tuning
CACHE_TTL=3600000
MAX_CONCURRENT_REQUESTS=10
```
### Claude Desktop Integration
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"medical-research": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/Users/eugenezhou/Code/medical-research-mcp-suite/dist/index.js"],
"env": {
"PUBMED_API_KEY": "your_key_here",
"FDA_API_KEY": "your_key_here"
}
}
}
}
```
## π Performance & Reliability
