Samples
Register and classify field and lab specimens (humans, animals, environment, parasites, nucleic acids, cultures and pools), each fully traceable to its origin.
An open-source One Health data platform
One workspace for the entire life of your epidemiological data.
Aleph∞One unifies sample registration, laboratory tracking, biobanking, literature and team coordination across human, animal and environmental health, from field collection to final publication.
Built with Laravel · SQL · Livewire. Piloted over 5 years across academic epidemiological research projects.
Surveillance data shouldn't live in scattered spreadsheets and paper logbooks. Aleph∞One replaces fragmented tools with one relational system, so evidence can accumulate project by project without losing traceability.
Platform
Four interconnected modules, one relational core.
Each module is a focused data environment, yet all are dynamically linked, so information flows across the whole platform instead of sitting in silos.
Experiments
Record categorical and quantitative results (Ct values, titres, OD), each linked to protocol, pathogen, lab, researcher and project for full reproducibility.
Storage & Biobank
Track every tube and box with a grid-based placement interface and full movement history, designed to align with ISO 20387 traceability requirements.
Literature
A shared, searchable reference repository with structured metadata, full-text uploads and relational links to protocols and generated results.
How it works
The same four ways to work with every dataset.
One consistent operational logic across all modules, so the platform feels familiar wherever you are in it.
01
Registration
Dynamic forms, table entry or bulk CSV import, with conditional logic and interactive selection.
02
List
Searchable, sortable, filterable tables with CRUD operations and one-click CSV export.
03
Dashboard
Real-time descriptive statistics, charts and maps to surface patterns and trends instantly.
04
Profile
A relational overview of any unit, aggregating every linked entity within its project context.
One Health by design
A relational data model built on the human–animal–environment triad.
Human, animal and environmental samples form the foundational units, processed into tubes: the operational hub where biological material, experiments and storage meet. Every derived sample, result and sequence stays linked to its origin.
Human
Animal
Environment
Every unit carries a self-explanatory traceability code

870+animals · 21 species
4,400+biological samples
28,000+experimental results
12,000+biobank tubes
~70pathogen species
8peer-reviewed papers
Also: 2,000+ parasite specimens, ~1,400 nucleic-acid extracts, 170+ biobank boxes and metadata from 200+ publications, all in one traceable system.
Built for research, by researchers
Governance and engineering you can trust.
Role-based access
Administrators, editors and viewers, with selective per-domain editing. A read-only Guest Mode opens curated data for transparency, teaching and layered surveillance.
Traceable & reproducible
Unique identifiers, timestamping, audit trails and polymorphic relationships keep every transformation linked to its source.
Layered surveillance
Build evidence one project at a time. Independent studies can progressively contribute to a broader, continuously evolving surveillance landscape.
