Share
The Data Coordination and Dissemination (DCD) workstream facilitates the sharing and discoverability of MAVE projects and MAVE data.
Members of this workstream may:
- Engage with clinical and non-clinical data resources and providers to enable MAVE data sharing, including federation with other resources identified by data consumers (e.g. ClinGen, UniProt, PharmGKB)
- Define and promote standards and infrastructure for MAVE data deposition, coordination and dissemination
- Define and promote infrastructure for data deposition, coordination and dissemination
- Write review, recommendation or guideline papers, often in conjunction with other AVE work streams
- Oversee the growth and management of MaveDB
