DaSH 2015

Goal

Our goal is to produce a service that will interpret novel alleles automatically and utilize HML 1.0 to manage novel variations.

Discussion: How do we deal with Novel Variation?

HLA is one of the most medically relevant gene systems in humans. While rare variants are important determinants of disease, common polymorphisms - especially prevalent in HLA - are more important for histocompatibility and donor-recipient matching. Can we build data standards and pipelines that accommodate both?

Coding

Adapt, enhance, modify, (hack) our pipeline to process IHIWS samples into (i) consensus sequences and HLA nomenclature (ii) HML 1.0 (iii) Enumerated Gene Features (http://biorxiv.org/content/early/2015/02/15/015222) (iv) Variant, variant effects, and functional/clinical annotation Validate the HML, possibly using either or both of these options. (i) Check/hack existing validation code produced by NMDP. (ii) Consume HML from the above processing, and check that everyone ends up with the same result.

What

Implementers will spend two days working on new ways to report and exchange HLA and KIR NGS data. We will concentrate on sorting out how to deal with novel polymorphisms. As the name 'hackathon' implies, the meeting is geared to 'implementers,' and less so to 'talkers' and 'directors.'
