Software that captures how scientists actually reason about variants — without exporting the insight to a desktop tool.
Fig. 03 — Track viewer
A research team had genomic insight locked in notebooks and ad-hoc scripts — intuition that never reached the shared system. We co-architected a genome browser and annotation workflow with embedded scientists, preserving how researchers think about variants.
Turn tacit genomic reasoning into software scientists would actually use — without forcing them into a workflow that erased how they think about variants.
What we did
01Mapped how scientists navigate variants across notebooks, scripts, and tribal knowledge.
02Co-architected the browser and annotation workflow with embedded domain scientists.
03Preserved researcher agency in the interface instead of flattening intuition into rigid forms.
04Shipped decision-ready views inside the platform so insight no longer lived only on desktops.
Outcome
Scientists stopped exporting to desktop tools. Decision-ready views shipped inside the platform.
