NCBI and NIAID are excited to announce our codeathon, VCF Files for Population Genomics: Scaling to Millions of Samples, to be held virtually from July 31st to August 4th, 2023 (1-5 PM ET).

This event aims to bring together experts in viral evolution, molecular epidemiology, and population genomics to explore methods for computing on the scale of millions of records using VCF files as inputs, with SARS-CoV-2 VCFs serving as a case study.
