alterlab-latchbio
From the author
Builds and deploys bioinformatics pipelines on the LatchBio platform using the Latch SDK — author workflows with @workflow/@task decorators, handle LatchFile/LatchDir I/O, register serverless workflows, configure CPU/GPU task resources, organize data in the Latch Registry, and wrap Nextflow/Snakemake pipelines. Use when developing or deploying a Latch SDK workflow, sizing task resources, working with the Registry, or porting a Nextflow/Snakemake bioinformatics pipeline onto LatchBio. Not for DNAnexus (dxpy/dx CLI) or generic Flyte. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.

- latchbio-integrationK-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skillsBuilds, registers, debugs, and operates bioinformatics workflows on Latch using the Python SDK, CLI, Latch Data and Registry, Nextflow, Snakemake, programmatic execution, and Latch MCP. Use when authoring or deploying Latch workflows, configuring resources or interfaces, moving data, integrating Registry, or launching and monitoring runs.DevOps★ 54.4K
- alterlab-dnanexusAlterLab-IEU/AlterLab-Academic-SkillsDevelops and runs genomics pipelines on the DNAnexus cloud platform using the dxpy Python SDK and dx CLI — build apps/applets, write dxapp.json, upload/download data, and execute jobs/workflows over FASTQ/BAM/VCF files. Use when building or running a DNAnexus app, applet, or workflow, writing dxapp.json, using dx-app-wizard or dx build, calling dxpy (find_data_objects, DXApplet.run, upload_local_file), or uploading/downloading sequencing data on DNAnexus. For LatchBio (Latch SDK @workflow/@task, LatchFile) use alterlab-latchbio instead; for Benchling LIMS use alterlab-benchling. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.Science★ 78
- alterlab-lamindbAlterLab-IEU/AlterLab-Academic-SkillsManage, annotate, and trace biological data with LaminDB, an open-source FAIR data framework that makes datasets queryable, versioned, and reproducible. Use when registering or querying biological datasets (scRNA-seq, spatial, flow cytometry), validating and curating data against ontologies (genes, cell types, diseases, tissues), tracking data lineage and computational workflows, building data lakehouses, or wiring integrations with Nextflow, Snakemake, W&B, or MLflow.
