Build a Research Gene Synonym Catalog Drift and Terminology Mapper
Evaluate gene symbol synonym catalogs from NCBI gene reports against standard terminologies. Detect deprecated symbols and generate FHIR ConceptMap resources for translational registries.
What you are building
The core problem, expected build, and operating context for this challenge.
Evaluate gene symbol synonym catalogs from NCBI gene reports against standard terminologies. Detect deprecated symbols and generate FHIR ConceptMap resources for translational registries.
Genomic Nomenclature Curator
Ingest NCBI Datasets gene reports containing canonical symbols, aliases, and taxonomy metadata.
Compare historical gene aliases against standard terminology mapping tables to identify drift.
Formulate replacement mappings for retired or ambiguous gene symbols.
Construct FHIR R5 ConceptMap resources defining explicit source-to-target translation rules.
Streamlit portal displaying alias change histories and providing one-click FHIR ConceptMap export.
Extract gene metadata reports using NCBI Datasets CLI for human genes ACRV1 and A2M via --include none. Starter examples below are synthetic. They are not downloaded records.
NCBI Datasets gene download Extracts gene metadata reports and synonym catalogs produced by NCBI Datasets download gene symbol queries.
pydantic-ai, fastapi, pandas. Pydantic AI structures terminology transformation rules and validates FHIR ConceptMap element schemas. API-based or local LLM for drafting textual rationales for nomenclature migrations.
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.
Identifies outdated gene synonyms that conflict with canonical NCBI Gene ID definitions.
Generates valid FHIR ConceptMap resources adhering to FHIR R5 terminology specifications.
Validates that all target mappings point to valid canonical symbols with active NCBI Gene IDs.
