The Bioinformatics and IT Workgroup is responsible for sourcing and developing software and other tools to interpret genetic variation; extracting data from participating labs; and making all project information available to the community at large. This workgroup will be developing, refining, and disseminating the novel variants assessment and phenotype cataloguing tools. They will also be responsible for creating the bioinformatic processes for extracting variant level knowledge data from the various external databases, standardizing the data, and importing it into the unified database. The Bioinformatics and IT Workgroup will also develop and maintain the website with direct input from the other two working groups.
