Is it time for epigenomics? The research community moves rapidly and the oncology space is one which rapidly adopts novelty. Perhaps we can provide a short-cut for future labs by giving them a place to put epigenetic data. Just thinking out loud.

Bret - whether it is time or not - I don't think our WG has the bandwidth to take this on right now. It wouldn't be a bad idea to start scoping what it would take to address this expansion of the current focus of the work group, but I don't see how we can scale to take this on now. I also wonder if the current make-up of the group has sufficient SME's to review the uses cases and data required for this expansion.. just thinking out loud :grinning:

I would say that there is sufficient subject matter expertise to model it. But my question was of timing, and it is reasonable to say not yet.
