From Raw to Curated Data: A Lakehouse Approach for Scientific Workflows

This report provides a technical overview of how to go from raw to curated data in three stages using a lakehouse approach. We focus on the application of open source tools in scientific use cases (while noting parallels to enterprise and commercial alternatives). Our goal is to provide scientific data managers and infrastructure providers with a common frame of reference for understanding and applying modern lakehouse technologies and approaches.

Improvements to MOOSE user workflow through polyhedral elements, automation, and concise physics syntax

The MOOSE framework is a foundational capability used by the NEAMS program to create over 15 different simulation tools for advanced nuclear reactors. Due to MOOSE's broad use, improvements to the framework in support of modeling and simulation goals are critical to the program. Such improvements can take many forms, including optimization, improved user experience, streamlined application programming interfaces (APIs), parallelism, and new capabilities. The work described in this report was conducted in direct support of NEAMS tools and includes: addition of support for polyhedral elements, incorporation of mesh smoothers for mesh repair, integration of the Physics and ActionComponents systems, expansion of the Convergence system, and exploration of automated input file generation. These five areas of development are fundamental capabilities that will be leveraged by many NEAMS applications.

A multiomics mass spectrometry workflow for fast and comprehensive strain optimization (Abstract CRADA 726 )

The Agile Biofoundry (ABF) is a multi-national lab consortium funded by the DOE Bioenergy Technologies Office that has developed a biofoundry that enables the rapid deployment of bioproducts into the market. The ABF is a flexible platform that can adjust to the needs of numerous government, academic and industrial partners, thus enabling them to rapidly develop and optimize the production of a wide range of bioproducts. To enhance this capability, PNNL and Agilent Technologies are collaborating to expand and demonstrate a prototype system that processes hundreds of samples per day by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry-based untargeted and targeted methods, and artificial intelligence software for multiomics applications, including metabolomics, lipidomics and proteomics.

An empirical DNA-based identification of morphologically similar snappers (Lutjanus campechanus, Lutjanus purpureus) using a versatile bioinformatics workflow for the discovery and analysis of informative single-nucleotide polymorphisms

The commercially important speciesLutjanus campechanus(Northern/Gulf red snapper) andLutjanus purpureus(Southern/Caribbean red snapper) are the protagonists of a decade’s long taxonomic debate over their species delimitation, due in part to partial habitat overlap, extensive morphological similarity, and the lack of resolution when applying canonically reliable DNA barcoding approaches. In this study, we leveraged publicly available RAD-Seq data forL. campechanusandL. purpureusto identify species-informative single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at the genome scale that were successful in distinguishing the Northern and Southern red snappers, while also detecting individuals exhibiting introgression. This 4-step empirical approach demonstrates the value of applying novel bioinformatics pipelines to existing genome-scale data to maximize the distillation of informative subsets. Our results facilitate economically relevant species identification in addition to confirming or challenging species identifications for specimens with data in public databases. These findings and their applications will benefit future sustainability strategies and broader research questions surrounding these overfished and evolutionarily entangled snapper species.

Drugsniffer: An Open Source Workflow for Virtually Screening Billions of Molecules for Binding Affinity to Protein Targets

The SARS-CoV2 pandemic has highlighted the importance of efficient and effective methods for identification of therapeutic drugs, and in particular has laid bare the need for methods that allow exploration of the full diversity of synthesizable small molecules. While classical high-throughput screening methods may consider up to millions of molecules, virtual screening methods hold the promise of enabling appraisal of billions of candidate molecules, thus expanding the search space while concurrently reducing costs and speeding discovery. Here, we describe a new screening pipeline, called drugsniffer, that is capable of rapidly exploring drug candidates from a library of billions of molecules, and is designed to support distributed computation on cluster and cloud resources. As an example of performance, our pipeline required ~40,000 total compute hours to screen for potential drugs targeting three SARS-CoV2 proteins among a library of ~3.7 billion candidate molecules.
