Video Tip of the Week: The New Database of Genomic Variants – DGV2 (edited)

9 November, 2011 (09:06) | General Science, Tip of the Week | By: Jennifer

In today’s tip I will briefly introduce you to the beta version of the updated DGV resource. The Database of Genomic Variants, or DGV, was created in 2004 at a time early in the understanding of human structural variation, or SV, which is defined by DGV as genomic variation larger than 50bp. DGV has historically [...]

I got my newsletter for May from the Database of Genomic Variants, or DGV.  They announce the availability of a large data set of variants from HapMap individuals.  There are more than 8000 variations available in this set. It’s not peer-reviewed at this point, so keep that in mind.  But if you are eager for [...]
