GA4GH Community Standards Prototype Launch

A New Hope

Based on the widespread interest of more general documentation of best practices at GA4GH Connect April 2023 we're looking into a restart and reframing of previous SchemaBlocks efforts into wider "genomic standards and use practices at GA4GH" concept.

Accordingly, the site has been split into 2 repositories where the direct schema parts are accessible through this ga4gh-schemablocks.github.io site1 while the documentation of GA4GH "best practices" is now accessible under the ga4gh-community-standards.github.io domain2. While only a few recommendations are available there at this time we encourage contributions from GA4GH members.

The previous SchemaBlockse site is accessible through legacy.schemablocks.org, although it may degrade over time ...


  1. As before - also schemablocks.org

  2. The site is also available through genomestandards.org
