+abstract: >-
+  SERD is a Python package designed to identify 
+  solvent-exposed residues within a target biomolecule, 
+  making them accessible to potential ligands. Furthermore, 
+  SERD has the capability to depict biomolecular 
+  structures as graphs, encompassing various entities, 
+  including binding sites (e.g., cavities identified by 
+  the KVFinder suite) and biomolecular complexes (e.g., 
+  IPPs, IPLs, IPRs, and IPDs), taking into account their 
+  intramolecular interactions.
