Jake Lamb contributed to the Colorado-State-University-CMB/CM515-course-2025 repository by developing and refining bioinformatics teaching materials and data resources. He built a comprehensive multi-species FASTA dataset and authored a Jupyter Notebook detailing bioinformatics file formats and command-line workflows, supporting reproducible analysis and student onboarding. Jake improved repository hygiene by updating the .gitignore, reducing version control noise and aligning with best practices. He expanded and refined hg38 BED target regions for broader genomic coverage and removed deprecated data formats to streamline onboarding. His work demonstrated depth in Python, data engineering, and Git, resulting in maintainable, well-documented, and educationally impactful resources.
March 2025: Focused on improving data quality and maintainability for the Colorado-State-University-CMB/CM515-course-2025 repository. Delivered initial expansion and refinement of hg38 BED target regions and completed housekeeping to remove outdated bioinformatics data formats and educational materials, reducing clutter and onboarding friction. All changes were tracked via Git commits to ensure reproducibility and traceability.
