Lab Practices

This is a partial description of the Dunn Lab’s conventions for code development.

Code review expectations for AI-generated code

• All AI-generated code must be reviewed as carefully as human-written code
• You are responsible for code you commit, regardless of who (or what) wrote it

Data privacy considerations

• Put all secure information (API keys, tokens, passwords, account usernames) in dedicated files that are in the .gitignore
• Use placeholder or synthetic data when developing analysis pipelines

Data management

Consult our separate data management plan for requirements and conventions on where to store data, how to share files, archival, etc.
