To date, researchers and clinicians use widely different methods for detecting and reporting human genetic variation. As the size of academic and private databases grow and as the use of the existing genomic techniques expand, researchers and clinicians stand to greatly benefit from the standardization of data generating approaches and analysis methodologies. To successfully implement genomic analyses in the clinic, it will be critically important to optimize the existing pipelines for attaining a higher sensitivity and specificity for more accurate and consistent variant calling
