Our paper Knowledge bases and software support for variant interpretation in precision oncology has been published in Briefings in Bioinformatics!

Which are the most important precision oncology knowledge bases and how can software tools access them? Together with the HiGHmed Working Group Analytics and Use Case Oncology we address this question in our latest paper. In an extensive review, we categorize 65 knowledge bases along the diagnostic process in precision oncology and rank them by relevancy through a survey among practitioners. In addition, we provide an in-depth analysis of technical access options, data management challenges, and existing integrations into 26 cancer variant interpretation tools
