Over three months, M. Flores-Payan enhanced the ejh243/BrainFANS repository by standardizing and improving the ATAC-seq analysis pipeline. They focused on reproducibility and cross-system consistency by implementing Conda-based environment management and updating installation workflows. Using Python, R, and Shell scripting, Flores-Payan automated quality control, introduced robust sample metadata handling, and integrated interactive Plotly visualizations for QC reports. Their work included refactoring configuration management, resolving data integrity issues, and removing deprecated scripts to streamline maintenance. These engineering efforts resulted in more reliable analyses, improved onboarding documentation, and facilitated reproducible, data-driven decisions for bioinformatics research within the BrainFANS project.
