CG WG Call Notes leading to 2015 May WGM

Proposed Agenda

• Briefing on the San Antonio WGM meetings

Attendees

• Amnon Shabo (Shvo), Jonathan Holt, Grant Wood, Scott Bolte, Bob Milius, Larry Babb, Sue Lam

Draft Minutes

• Scott briefed on the San Antonio WGM meetings
• John:
  • Genetic family history: gender vs. sex
  • Modelling "Sequence"
• Larry: HGVS is not computable and quite ambiguous, and that's why it's important to pursue the "Sequence"modeling effort
• John: HGVS is actually interpretation and it's hard to get back to the raw data, based on which that HGVS expression was created
• Bob: rendering for the human viewing is case-specific (e.g., HLA) but the underlying structure should be unambiguous and common to all types of rendering
