Abstract: The presently described techniques relate generally to configuration and use of a software platform that provides tools for users to store, arrange, and visualize genetic data, such as may be derived from a nucleic acid sequencing device. In addition, such a software platform may include one or more tools that allow a user to annotate genetic data with information available from external and/or internal genetic databases and to create custom reports based on such information. In practice, the software platform may be generic with respect to the sequencing device generating the sequence data, one or more upstream analytic packages, such as may perform variant identification or calling, and one or more external or internal data stores (e.g., knowledge bases or databases) used to access information about the sequence and/or variants identified therein.
