Variant calling workflow and Report page overview

Germline variant calling starts with the BAM file produced by our Alignment/QC pipeline, variants are called using HaplotypeCaller from GATK, and then annotated using snpEff. The report page provides an interactive table to browse and filter the raw variant calls and summary statistics are available as well.
