For Translational Researchers
60\u201380% of your project
time is data wrangling.
OpenBio gives you a normalized, species-agnostic evidence substrate so you can stop building pipelines and start doing science.
// Query across all 5 species
const cohort = await openBio.queryCohort({
assertionType: 'variant_call',
species: 'all',
trustLayer: 'source_fact'
})}
// → 5 species · 247 variant calls · same schemaEvery species, a different schema
FHIR for humans, DICOM for imaging, GenBank for sequences — no unified data model.
Provenance is manual and fragile
Derived facts overwrite source data. Three months later no one knows where a result came from.
Multi-site ETL takes months
Harmonizing data across institutions requires 6–12 months of custom engineering before analysis can begin.
One Schema. Five Species.
Stop building pipelines. Start doing science.
Species-Agnostic Schema
The same EvidenceAssertion model covers human, canine, primate, cell line, and microbe. Species is metadata, not architecture.
Standard Terminology Built In
LOINC, SNOMED, NCBI taxonomy, and gene ontology are normalized at ingestion — not bolted on later.
Provenance Chains
Every derived fact traces back to source data. No black boxes — every inference knows its parents.
Cohort Queries
Query across subjects by species, assertion type, or trust layer. Compare human and canine oncology cohorts in a single call.
