Cancer genomics, WGS Sci. Life. Lab Human WGS Tool. Box Nov 2015 Björn Nystedt, Sci. Life. Lab Bioinformatics platform
Why are we here today? • Human WGS is becoming routine and will be used both for basic science and for medical discovery and diagnostics • Sci. Life. Lab provides multiple resources around Human WGS, which are open to all Swedish researchers • The challenges in handling and analyzing Human WGS data calls for collaborations and community knowledge sharing 2
Genomics England 100, 000 genomes Overall aims - Advance genomics medicine (integrate into NHS) - Increase research - Boost the private sector in the field The main focus of the program is cancer and rare disease. Huge efforts into setting up the logistics circle. Long-term to transform clinical diagnostics from using sequencing to try to confirm/reject a specific diagnosis, to make a more general match of the patient’s genotype-phenotype profile to a large curated genotypephenotype space. Goal 100, 000 genomes sequenced by the end of 2017 (!)

Human WGS sequencing Oct 2015: $1150, 70 projects, 2300 + 1000 genomes Capacity 5 -10, 000 genomes/year
What is the Human WGS Tool. Box? Tool. Box • • Community building Guidelines Tools Training • A discussion and coordination forum • The bioinformatics platform contributes ~2 FTE to Tool. Box implementations • Intend to complement current deliveries from the sequencing platform https: //wabi-wiki. scilifelab. se/display/SHGATG/
What we do right now • GATK for hg 38 • Structural variation: Benchmark, combine tools, compare samples • Tumor/Normal/(relapse) somatic variant calling • Variant significance tools: Burden tests etc. Some future challenges • Epigenetics • Time-series designs (Embryo dev, Cell diff, Cell aging) • Phased genomes (Imputation, 10 X) • Integrative designs • Single-cell genomics
