Geneticists wanting a tool to identify and classify causal variants for inherited disease risk
About VSClinical
VSClinical allows for the clinical interpretation of variants based on ACMG & AMP guidelines. The VSClinical guided workflow enables following the American College of Medical Genetics (ACMG) guidelines used to identify and classify causal variants for inherited disease risk, cancer predisposition, and the diagnosis of rare diseases. The ACMG/AMP joint guidelines for variant interpretation provide a set of criteria to score variants and place them into one of five classification tiers. Following the guidelines requires deep diving into the annotations, genomic context, and existing clinical assertions about every variant. VSClinical provides a tailored workflow to score each relevant criterion while also providing all the bioinformatic, literature and evidence from clinical knowledgebases to assist in the scoring and interpretation process. VSClinical is designed to allow variant scientists to efficiently process variants.
