Nathan Hillson Agile BioFoundry

Software Engineers in the Synthetic Biology Informatics Group develop, deploy, and maintain software that support the DOE JGI’s Synthetic Biology Program. Representative software includes:

Synthetic Biology Internal Review System, which supports the JGI’s Synthetic Biology Internal Review process
DNA Synthesis Sequence Screening Pipeline, which screens all DNA sequences prior to synthesis in compliance with the Federal Screening Framework Guidance for Providers of Synthetic Double-Stranded DNA
SynTrack and associated tools, which track samples through the JGI’s Synthetic Biology pipeline as well as provide process automation support
DOE JGI’s ICE (Inventory of Composable Elements) instance, which serves as an informatic repository of the JGI’s host strains, vectors, and DNA parts
DOE JGI’s DIVA (Design, Implementation, Validation Automation) instance, which will serve as the community’s front end to the DNA Synthesis Program, provide access to DNA design tools, and enable users to track the progress of their designed constructs as they proceed through the construction process
