Excited to share the white paper for the IGVF Consortium, supported by @genome_gov
Deciphering the impact of genomic variation on function

National Human Genome Research Institute@genome_gov
Understanding the function of an entire genome is no easy task! Most genes likely have more than one function. To understand the functional effects of genomic variation, NHGRI launched a consortium called Impact of Genomic Variation on Function (IGVF). genome.gov/news/IGVF
