Microbiology Data Specialist
Ingest prokaryotic gene packages containing WP_ accessions and gene metadata using Biopython.
Inspect coding coordinates for internal stop codons indicating programmatic translation exceptions or frameshifts.
Verify whether ribosomal slippage exceptions are explicitly cataloged in the gene data report.
Assemble findings into FHIR DiagnosticReport resources linking affected prokaryotic accessions.
CLI utility with terminal summary tables and automated JSON artifact dispatch to local filesystem.
Query bacterial gene packages using NCBI Datasets CLI with taxon identifiers and WP_ accession filters in sandbox test environments. Starter examples below are synthetic. They are not downloaded records.
NCBI Datasets gene download Leverages NCBI Datasets prokaryotic gene package rules specifying WP_ accessions with gene and protein sequences.
dspy, biopython, pydantic. DSPy compiles robust prompt pipelines to classify biological annotations against structured taxonomy categories without brittle prompt templates. Local or hosted API LLM capable of rule-grounded categorization and structured summary generation.
Submit runnable source, pinned dependencies, setup commands, a working interface, example outputs, and a recorded end-to-end demo. Include tests and an action log.
Accurately flags internal stop codons in prokaryotic nucleotide records when translating via standard genetic code.
Identifies documented translational exceptions in gene package metadata vs undocumented coordinate anomalies.
Generates valid FHIR DiagnosticReport JSON containing observation references for flagged accessions.
```json [ { "input": { "accession": "WP_000123456.1", "nucleotide_seq": "ATGCGCTAATGA", "slippage_annotated": true }, "expected_output": { "slippage_detected": true, "annotation_status": "documented", "review_recommended": false, "fhir_diagnostic_report": { "resourceType": "DiagnosticReport", "status": "final", "conclusion": "Documented ribosomal slippage observed in WP_000123456.1." } } }, { "input": { "accession": "WP_000987654.1", "nucleotide_seq": "ATGCGCTAATGA", "slippage_annotated": false }, "expected_output": { "slippage_detected": true, "annotation_status": "undocumented", "review_recommended": true, "fhir_diagnostic_report": { "resourceType": "DiagnosticReport", "status": "registered", "conclusion": "Undocumented internal stop codon detected in WP_000987654.1. Curator inspection needed." } } } ] ```
Operates entirely on unclassified prokaryotic reference records without real biological sample processing. Use mock external writes. Require human review before any real deployment.

How submissions are scored
These dimensions define what the evaluator checks and which criteria separate a passable run from a strong one.
Complete workflow
Ingest prokaryotic gene packages containing WP_ accessions and gene metadata using Biopython. Inspect coding coordinates for internal stop codons indicating programmatic translation exceptions or frameshifts. Verify whether ribosomal slippage exceptions are explicitly cataloged in the gene data report. Assemble findings into FHIR DiagnosticReport resources linking affected prokaryotic accessions.
Missing or incorrect.
Partly complete, with documented gaps.
Complete, with reproducible evidence.
