PROFILE

Michael Harper

Michael Harper developed an end-to-end UBAM processing and kinetics removal pipeline for the populationgenomics/production-pipelines repository. Using Python scripting and command line tools such as samtools, he enabled automated handling of PacBio ubam files from Google Cloud Storage, removal of kinetic data, and output of cleaned BAM files to a specified directory. He standardized output naming conventions and path handling, converting extensions and introducing consistent suffixes to improve downstream usability and reduce manual intervention. This work enhanced data quality and reproducibility, demonstrating depth in bioinformatics data processing and cloud integration while simplifying automation and supporting robust downstream analytics workflows.

Month 2025-11 — Major feature delivered for populationgenomics/production-pipelines. Implemented the UBAM processing and kinetics removal pipeline enabling end-to-end handling of PacBio ubam files from Google Cloud Storage, removal of kinetic data via samtools, and saving cleaned BAMs to a defined output directory. Standardized output naming and path handling to improve downstream usability and clarity (changing extensions to .bam and naming conventions like '_no_kinetics_bam'). This work enhances data quality, reproducibility, and pipeline stability, reducing manual intervention and enabling smoother integration with downstream analytics.
