A recent preprint introduces MaveMD, a clinical interface for MaveDB that integrates MAVE data with ClinVar and ClinGen to support variant classification and reduce VUS uncertainty.

The image is a promotional graphic for a "Fireside Chat" event organized by the Variant Effects Seminar Series and the AVE Alliance. The background is light gray, and the text is in dark gray and green. At the top, there is a stylized image of a fireplace with flames. Below, bold text reads "Fireside Chat," with an invitation to join on January 6th, 2026, featuring Dr. Maitreya Dunham and Dr. Matthew Hurles discussing MAVEs in clinical space and model organism systems. The date and time are highlighted in dark and light green ovals: "01.06.26" and "9:00AM (Pacific)." To the right, the Atlas of Variant Effects logo is displayed featuring stylized DNA strands formed by interwoven lines. At the bottom, there are two photos: on the left is Dr. Maitreya Dunham, with the text "Maitreya Dunham, University of Washington," and on the right is Dr. Matthew Hurles, with the text "Matthew Hurles, Wellcome Sanger Institute."
