Funded Activity Summary

This project will build a bioinformatics diagnostic tool for the detection of small insertions and deletions (INDELs) in the human genome, which are the second most abundant class of human genetic variations. INDELs are implicated in many human diseases. Thus, the assessment of INDELs is critical for understanding disease etiology, disease susceptibility, and for interpreting personal genome sequencing data. The goal is to improve disease diagnosis and prevention.
