Exploring Biomedical Databases with BioNav

Summary: BioNav is a MeSH-guided, cost-aware search interface for biomedical databases (e.g., PubMed). It builds a navigation tree and reveals a small, cost-optimized subset of concept nodes at each step, unlike static, predefined hierarchy expansion. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
