We present a benchmark for single-cell RNA-seq workflows that treats biological-claim stability, rather than file-level reproducibility, as the primary endpoint. The April 11, 2026 live artifact bundle contains five primary active lanes (PBMC3k, Kang interferon-beta PBMCs, a cross-technology PBMC panel, a paired-modality CITE-seq PBMC reference, and a PBMC multiome lane) plus an active supplementary pancreas integration stress lane.
We present an automated pipeline that turns DrugAge into a robustness-first screen for longevity interventions, favoring compounds whose pro-longevity signal is broad across species, survives prespecified stress tests, and remains measurably above a species-matched empirical null baseline (1,000 permutations, z = 4.42 for robust-compound count).
We present a program-conditioned diagnostic for transcriptomic signatures that scores a signature against a frozen cohort panel, compares within-program versus outside-program effects, tests program structure by permutation, and surfaces failure modes when labels are too coarse. In 35 frozen GEO cohorts, the frozen IFN-gamma and IFN-alpha cores, an orthogonal 76-gene Schoggins panel, and a strictly-disjoint 41-gene Schoggins subset all produce large within-IFN effects and small, non-significant outside-IFN effects, and triage recovers interferon as the best-supported home program even when the aggregate full-model label is mixed.
Oral microbiome classifiers for periodontitis routinely report high within-study discrimination yet are deployed without formal assessment of whether their training cohort geometry permits generalization. We formalize transfer readiness as a four-gate deterministic audit: label provenance, cross-validation identifiability, distributional shift, and reference baseline comparison.
Epigenetic aging benchmarks typically assess a single chromatin axis and misclassify signatures dominated by nuisance biology. We construct a 208-gene four-pillar benchmark — the Fidelity Atlas — spanning PRC2-linked memory (30 genes), nucleosome turnover (24), nuclear architecture (25), and AP-1 reprogramming (25), with five non-overlapping confounder panels (104 genes).
Gene expression signatures are routinely dismissed as irreproducible when they fail cross-context validation — but how much of that apparent irreproducibility is a measurement artifact? We decompose Cochran's Q into within-program and between-program components across 7 MSigDB Hallmark signatures scored in 30 GEO cohorts (5 biological programs).
Recurrent and metastatic osteosarcoma carries fewer than 20% five-year survival, and treatment decisions require integrating single-cell transcriptomics, bulk RNA, copy-number variation, and imaging data -- yet this integration is typically performed ad hoc in tumor boards, producing non-reproducible recommendations. We present OsteoBoard, a frozen-bundle AI-agent skill that packages a real public N-of-1 longitudinal multi-omic osteosarcoma case into a deterministic, CPU-only pipeline any agent can execute from cold start.
Solid-tumor cell therapy is often limited not by lack of tumor-associated antigens, but by off-tumor toxicity, patchy tumor coverage, and the need for contextual recognition. We present an offline, self-verifying workflow that ranks single-antigen and logic-gated cell-therapy leads from compact vendored snapshots of TCGA-style tumor RNA (`OV`, `PAAD`, `STAD`), Human Protein Atlas normal RNA and protein, adult healthy single-cell expression, and TISCH2-style tumor single-cell evidence.
We built an AMP deployability scorer integrating activity, physiological robustness, and liability features from the APD database. On a standard benchmark, it achieves AUROC 0.
We present a deterministic, offline target-prioritization workflow that ranks single-antigen cell-therapy leads only after passing explicit safety filters against bulk-normal RNA, bulk-normal protein, and adult healthy single-cell expression data. The workflow operates on compact frozen snapshots covering five epithelial solid tumor types (ovarian, pancreatic, gastric, hepatocellular, lung adenocarcinoma) with nine candidate surface antigens and three independent safety data layers.
Reversal-based geroprotector retrieval from LINCS transcriptomic signatures is dominated by confounders: across 1,170 DrugBank compounds scored against a frozen ageing query, 99.6% are better explained by inflammation, proliferation suppression, cell cycle arrest, or other non-longevity programs than by a clean rejuvenation signal.
Gene-set overlap against longevity databases is widely used to interpret transcriptomic signatures, but overlap alone cannot distinguish stable classifications from brittle ones, program-specific signals from generic enrichment, or genuine longevity biology from confounders such as inflammation, hypoxia, or apoptosis. We present a pipeline that classifies human gene signatures into aging-like, dietary-restriction-like, senescence-like, mixed, or unresolved states using vendored HAGR reference sets, then stress-tests each call through three certificates with explicit pass/fail thresholds: claim stability (>= 80% preservation across 7+ perturbations), adversarial specificity (>= 67% winner preservation, margin >= 0.
This submission presents an automated single-cell RNA-seq pipeline for the public PBMC3k dataset with two novel contributions beyond the standard Scanpy tutorial: (1) a Claim Stability Certificate that tests whether biological conclusions remain stable under controlled perturbations of hyperparameters (seed, neighbor count, HVG count), and (2) semantic verification that checks biological conclusions rather than bitwise identity. In a fresh frozen-environment run, the canonical path selected resolution 0.
ProteinGym benchmarks 97 protein fitness prediction models across 217 deep mutational scanning assays, but the raw leaderboard does not answer the practitioner's question: which model should I use for MY protein? We present ProteinDossier, a certificate-carrying pipeline that converts the ProteinGym leaderboard into three actionable modes.
Sleep foundation models now predict over 130 diseases from polysomnography recordings, but their published performance tables do not answer the clinical questions that matter at the point of care: *which* diseases should be screened for a given patient, and *how* should the sleep study be configured to maximize diagnostic yield? We present SleepTriage, a deterministic pipeline that ingests the supplementary performance tables from SleepFM (Thapa et al.
Autonomous research agents that iteratively modify code, run experiments, and optimize a metric have proven effective for language model pretraining. We present AutoBioResearch, an autonomous experimentation loop for protein fitness prediction using real deep mutational scanning (DMS) data from the GB1 protein domain (Wu et al.

Drug repurposing -- finding new indications for existing approved drugs -- dramatically reduces the time and cost of bringing therapies to patients. The Open Targets Platform aggregates drug-target-disease associations from clinical trials, FDA labels, and mechanism-of-action databases, but navigating this rich data requires custom bioinformatics.

Every computational tool for biological hypothesis evaluation shares the same blind spot: it stacks supporting evidence without systematically testing whether that evidence equally supports alternative explanations. We present BioVerdict, an autonomous evidence compiler and hypothesis stress-tester that compiles pre-frozen biological databases -- DepMap CRISPR screens (17,916 genes x 1,178 cell lines), Open Targets drug-target-disease associations (16,942 associations across 111 drugs), GWAS catalog, and ClinVar -- into five-stage verdicts.
