HVP Special Issue
Special Issue: Bioinformatics for Human Genetics: Promises and Challenges, A Human Variome Project Special Issue (May 2011)
Guest edited by Annika Lindblom and Peter N. Robinson
In this HVP Special Issue, expert bioinformaticians from among the attendees of the Paris 2010 Human Variome Project Symposium have provided a selection of some of the “hot” computational topics over the next decade. These experts identify the promise—what human geneticists who are not themselves bioinformaticians stand to gain—as well as the challenges and unmet needs that are likely to represent fruitful areas of research.
