What problem does it solve?
This Skill removes the friction of building and deploying bioinformatics workflows on Latch, helping you turn analysis ideas into reproducible, serverless pipelines with the right data objects, resources, and execution flow.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Workflow creation and deployment: Define Python workflows with task decorators, register them to Latch, and package them for repeatable execution.
- Cloud data handling: Work with LatchFile and LatchDir for file and directory inputs, outputs, and cloud-backed storage paths.
- Resource configuration: Choose appropriate CPU, memory, storage, timeout, and GPU settings for lightweight or compute-heavy tasks.
- Verified bioinformatics pipelines: Extend or reuse supported workflows for RNA-seq, differential expression, AlphaFold, sequence alignment, single-cell analysis, and CRISPR analysis.
- Use case: A research team can map an RNA-seq pipeline from raw reads to results, tune resources for each stage, and deploy it as a reusable Latch workflow.
Quick Start
Ask for help designing, registering, or debugging a Latch bioinformatics workflow for your specific analysis, and include the input types, task steps, resource needs, and deployment goal.
