This skill provides comprehensive integration with the LabArchives Electronic Lab Notebook (ELN) platform via its REST API. It allows users to programmatically manage notebooks, retrieve user data, automate entry creation, upload diverse attachments (PDF, CSV, images), perform full notebook backups, and generate detailed usage reports. Ideal for automating scientific workflows and integrating ELN data with tools like Jupyter or REDCap.

LaminDB is an open-source, lineage-native lakehouse specifically designed for complex biological datasets and models. It provides unified capabilities for querying, tracking data lineage, validating schemas, and ensuring FAIR compliance across diverse data types (e.g., AnnData, Parquet, Zarr). Use this skill when managing multi-modal genomic data, tracking computational workflows (like Nextflow/Snakemake), or building robust, reproducible data infrastructure in bioinformatics.

Latch is a robust Python framework designed for building, deploying, and managing complex, scalable bioinformatics workflows as serverless pipelines. It supports integrating multiple analysis tools (like Nextflow/Snakemake) and handles cloud data management (LatchFile/LatchDir) and detailed resource configuration (GPU, CPU, memory). Ideal for running large-scale analyses such as RNA-seq, AlphaFold, and single-cell analysis in a reproducible, production-ready environment.

An end-to-end toolkit designed for analyzing high-density Neuropixels electrophysiology recordings. It implements best practices using SpikeInterface, covering the entire workflow: data loading (SpikeGLX, NWB), preprocessing, motion/drift correction, advanced spike sorting (Kilosort4), quality metric computation, and unit curation (including AI-assisted review). Ideal for neuroscience research.

This skill provides a comprehensive Python API integration for the OMERO platform, an open-source solution for managing and analyzing large-scale microscopy datasets. Users can programmatically access images, retrieve structured data, analyze raw pixel data, manage complex annotations (ROIs), and execute batch processing workflows essential for high-content screening and advanced biological research.

Polars is a lightning-fast DataFrame library built on Apache Arrow for Python. It provides an expression-based API, lazy query optimization, and parallel computation capabilities for efficient data manipulation, analytics, and ETL pipelines. It is designed to handle large, memory-intensive datasets, making it an ideal alternative for migrating from pandas or optimizing complex data workflows.

PyDESeq2 is a robust Python implementation for conducting differential gene expression analysis on bulk RNA-seq count data. It supports complete statistical workflows, including data loading from various formats, complex multi-factor design specifications (e.g., accounting for batch effects or covariates), normalization, and performing advanced Wald tests. It is ideal for researchers transitioning R-based DESeq2 analyses into scalable Python pipelines.

A comprehensive Python wrapper for OpenMS, designed for sophisticated computational mass spectrometry workflows. It supports end-to-end analysis in proteomics and metabolomics, enabling feature detection, peptide/protein identification, quantitative analysis (label-free/isobaric), and adduct/accurate mass annotation. Ideal for researchers processing complex LC-MS/MS raw data and running high-level pipelines.

Access a comprehensive network of 78 public databases across scientific, biomedical, environmental, and physical domains. This skill enables deterministic and reproducible data retrieval through documented REST APIs. It manages complex workflows including exhaustive pagination, cross-referencing identifiers across sources (e.g., PubChem, UniProt), and generating full provenance logs, ensuring results are auditable for high-stakes scientific research.
