Abstract:
In October 2021, 59 scientists from 14 countries and 13 U.S. states
collaborated virtually in the Third Annual Baylor College of Medicine &
DNANexus Structural Variation hackathon. The goal of the hackathon
was to advance research on structural variants (SVs) by prototyping
and iterating on open-source software. This led to nine hackathon
projects focused on diverse genomics research interests, including
various SV discovery and genotyping methods, SV sequence
reconstruction, and clinically relevant structural variation, including
SARS-CoV-2 variants. Repositories for the projects that participated in
the hackathon are available at https://github.com/collaborativebioinformatics.
