Dear GIAB Analysis Team,

It's been great working with many of you to explore a variety of ways to integrate structural variants, and we'd like to start a series of calls occurring every 2 weeks to plan and coordinate integration of the candidate SVs, manual inspection, forming benchmark calls, and publications.  Our first call will be 3pm EDT on April 17, and calls are planned for every 2 weeks after that at the same time.  Further information about agenda for the call and connection information will be sent closer to the first call.  I'm looking forward to talking with many of you then!

Also, if you've been developing new or enhanced methods for calling variants >19bp in size or doing de novo assembly and are interested in applying them to the GIAB AJ Trio, and you have not been in contact with me recently, I'd be happy to talk with you to see if we can include them in the integration methods.

Cheers,

Justin
