Human geneticist know its been a nightmare to call reliable #CNVs from #exome. Fortunately @TalkowskiLab helps calling CNVs on our @broadinstitute-sequenced samples. Image our excitement with the new benchmarked algorithm #GATK-gCNV biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor… #bioRxiv! Awesome!

CNVs are an area effectively ignored in the @uk_biobank exome papers and perhaps should be re-examined with this new GATK-gCNV caller (although I'm sure @TalkowskiLab, @RyanLCollins13 have probably already started exploring this in the UKB exomes😉).

Everyone knows CNV calling is tough in exome-seq data, so Fig. 1D is pretty impressive showing that @gatk_dev's GATK-gCNV caller performs shockingly similar between WES and WGS data.
