The Sulston Project Making the Knowledge Commons for Interpreting Cancer Genomic Variants More Effective

High-speed and low-cost sequencing, combined with intense clinical interest, have led to widespread use of multi-gene testing for inherited variants conferring risk of cancer. Millions of genetic tests for inherited risk of cancer have been administered since commercial testing of BRCA1/2 variants began in 1996, and yet new variants continue to be found. Determining a variant’s clinical significance can be a challenge. As hereditary cancer testing panels have transitioned to sequencing dozens of genes, rath
