The Variant Calling and Analysis team collaborates with external and internal researchers on their sequencing analysis projects and works closely with the Sequencing Unit and the Production Bioinformatics team.

The team develops and operates state-of-the-art pipelines and tools while ensuring quality through a variety of mechanisms. The main focus is the identification and annotation of all kinds of germline variants and somatic mutations from short read and long read sequencing data, mostly from human data but also from many other organisms. In addition, the team collaborates in tertiary analysis in many projects.
