Abstract:
Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for building a community database of allele counts. An embodiment operates by receiving human variant datasets derived from samples generated by distinct users, wherein the users consented to share pooled variant observations with other users; determining that a plurality of variant observations meet the inclusion criteria for a pool; and calculating one or more anonymized allele statistics from the pool.
