Over six months, Awdeh developed and optimized bioinformatics pipelines for the broadinstitute/warp repository, focusing on workflow orchestration, testing, and documentation. Awdeh integrated and refactored WDL-based workflows, such as the SlideTags and Optimus pipelines, to streamline data preparation and alignment, improve maintainability, and enhance reproducibility. Using Python, WDL, and shell scripting, Awdeh consolidated tasks, introduced comprehensive testing frameworks, and updated pipeline parameters to support new genomic features. The work included detailed technical documentation and onboarding resources, ensuring cross-platform usability and clear guidance for users. Awdeh’s contributions demonstrated depth in pipeline validation, workflow optimization, and robust code organization.

June 2025 focused on strengthening test coverage, pipeline reliability, and user guidance for broadinstitute/warp. Key work delivered a comprehensive testing and validation framework for the Slide-Tags pipeline (with new WDL workflows and a refactored config for tests), added mitochondrial list support and minor version bumps across ATAC, Multiome, and PairedTag pipelines, and refreshed Warp documentation to surface viral reference resources (BICAN and SCORCH). These efforts improve reliability, reproducibility, and onboarding, reducing production risk and accelerating validation cycles.

April 2025 performance summary for broadinstitute/warp: Delivered two major feature improvements that streamline the STAR alignment workflow and SlideTags processes, updated pipeline versions, and refreshed documentation and download endpoints. STAR alignment pipeline refactor consolidated the MergeStarOutput task into STARsoloFastq to simplify alignment output processing and improve maintainability, with corresponding pipeline version updates. SlideTags workflow enhancements updated inputs and outputs (including positioning and spatial count), refreshed script download URLs, and updated documentation; pipeline versions were incremented accordingly. No major bugs were reported this month; stability and reproducibility were improved through these refactors and versioned releases.
