Atlas of Variant Effects 2030 Roadmap: resolving human variants of uncertain significance
At the Clinical Atlas of Variant Effects meeting (CLAVE meeting, July 2024, Pittsburgh USA), we developed recommendations for a draft atlas that can be realized by 2030, with a focus on empowering gen...

New preprint! We worked with
@msftresearch.bsky.social
and
@broadinstitute.org
to see whether large language models (LLMs) can be useful to variant scientists in deciding whether genetic variants seen in a patient are responsible for their disease. tl;dr yes they can:

Forthcoming guidance will recommend labs report VUS subclasses. We share experience of 4 labs including rates of reclassification of VUS subclasses. By highlighting VUS-high and downplaying VUS-low, this will be game-changing for dx genetic testing.

Purpose: Genetic testing commonly yields a plethora of variants of uncertain significance (VUS) that can lead to ongoing uncertainty for patients and their caregivers. While all VUS hold uncertainty,β¦
