CLSI requests nominations for volunteers to serve as members and contributors on a document development committee for a new document.
MM25: Sequencing Bioinformatics for Human Genetics and Oncology, 1st Edition
Description
CLSI document MM25 will provide information on the primary and secondary components of a bioinformatics pipeline for handling data from massively parallel sequencing. In addition, this guideline will assist with understanding the complexity of the pipeline development process, pipeline validation, continued monitoring, and version control. Guidance on meeting regulations applicable to the bioinformatics pipeline to ensure quality and patient safety will also be included. MM25 will provide information on freeware and open-source software, data storage, databasing, and data sharing.
This group is looking for volunteers with:
Proficiency in bioinformatics
Expertise in massively parallel sequencing technology in the medical laboratory, government, or industry
Experience representing vendors that provide in silico data files
Additional information on essential job duties and skills and abilities for CLSI committee participants can be viewed here.
