Variant effect predictors in the clinic: Working with calibrated predictors in OpenCRAVAT

Computational methods for predicting the effects of genetic variants are used by clinicians for interpreting genetic test results and by researchers for scientific exploration. However, their utility is limited by several issues. First, hundreds of methods are available without clear standards for s
