Hi,

I just wanted to check if this is the address to direct anyone with any
general queries about HGVS nomenclature?

Your new website says "Users of HGVS Nomenclature are invited to contact
us to ask questions or get involved with its development." but doesn't
provide an email address to do so, and only gives the option to "Join
the HGNC Nomenclature Group" or "See Community Consultation".

As HGNC we sometimes receive questions that are really meant for HGVS so
it would be good to know where to direct these people - it might also be
useful to link the general email address from the new home page in the
contact us section? If this isn't the correct address please let us know
which one to use.

Many thanks, Elspeth

Dear Elspeth,

yes, questions about HGVS nomenclature can be asked here or by mailing to the old address "Varnomen @ HUGO-int.org" (remove spaces). We'll check the page you refer to and add the mail address, thanks for pointing this out.

Best regards,

Johan den Dunnen
