Hey everyone,
I’m working on a small research-use prototype around genomics workflow traceability and reproducibility.
The problem I’m exploring is simple: in genomics workflows, it can become difficult to know exactly which input sequence was used, what changed between runs, what parameters were applied, and whether the same result can be reproduced later.
The prototype is called ZGL . It is not a clinical tool, not a diagnostic engine, and not meant to replace existing genomics or bioinformatics pipelines.
In a controlled demo, it takes a short DNA sequence, compares a reference and sample, records the workflow path, verifies input/output integrity with hashes, and produces a structured trace report.
I’m looking for honest technical feedback:
Would a traceability/reproducibility report like this be useful in a genomics research setting?
What metadata would you expect to see before taking such a report seriously?
I’m also open to a small research-only pilot using public, simulated, or non-sensitive sequence data.
Thanks.
