Join GA4GH Beacon Scouts

30 Jan 2024

The GA4GH Beacon v2 specification team is inviting active contributors to “scout” specific topics that will allow the team to improve the API and boost its adoption in the community.

The topics are development, filters, variants, matchmaking, and cohort. Each area will have its own dedicated Scout which will work autonomously and report to the GA4GH Beacon API team. To learn more and apply click here.
