ICGC-TCGA DREAM Somatic Mutation Calling Challenge

The ICGC-TCGA DREAM Somatic Mutation Calling Challenge is an international effort to improve standard methods for identifying cancer-associated mutations and rearrangements in whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data. Leaders of the International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) cancer genomics projects are joining with Sage Bionetworks and IBM-DREAM to initiate this innovative open crowd-sourced Challenge. The goal of this Challenge is to identify the most accurate mutation detection algorithms, and establish the state-of-the-art.
