that can be used to mimic both of ontarget and off-target genome editing
induced variants at known frequencies
in a background of human genomic
DNA which can be used to benchmark
validation of sequencing pipelines
intended to identify genome editing
induced variants.
b. Design and conduct controlled
evaluations of assays intended to
identify where genome editing enzymes
have been active in a genome, with an
experimental design that allows for
enough power to assess the sources of
variability, repeatability, and
reproducibility within an assay.
(2) Data and Meta Data:
a. Identify community norms for data
formats and tools for benchmarking data
analysis including in silico data sets and
an experimental data set.
b. Determine the type of meta data
that would be needed to be shared,
housed, and interrogated from genome
editing experiments.
(3) Lexicon: Identify terms and related
definitions to form a common genome
editing community lexicon.
No proprietary information will be
shared as part of the Consortium.
Process: Interested parties with
relevant genome editing associated
capabilities (see below), products, and/
or technical expertise to support this
Consortium should contact NIST using
the information provided in the
ADDRESSES section of this notice. NIST
will then provide each interested party
with a letter of interest template, which
the party must complete, and submit to
NIST. NIST will contact interested
parties if there are questions regarding
the responsiveness of the letters. NIST
will select participants who have
submitted complete letters of interest
based on the capabilities listed below.
Eligibility will be determined solely by
NIST based on information provided by
interested organizations and upon the
availability of necessary resources to
NIST.
To participate, the eligible applicant
will be required to sign a CRADA with
NIST.
Requirements: Each letter of interest
should provide the following
information:
(1) A description of the experience in
genome editing or genome engineering,
bioinformatics, next-generation
sequencing, detection or quantitation of
DNA variants or related expertise to
contribute to the Consortium.
(2) Subgroups or topic areas of
interest for participation. There is no
limit on the number of areas of
participation.
(3) List of interested party’s
anticipated participants.

Letters of interest may not include
business proprietary information. NIST
will not treat any information provided
in response to this Notice as proprietary
information. NIST will notify each
organization of its eligibility. In order to
participate in this Consortium, each
eligible organization must sign a
CRADA for this Consortium. All
participants to this Consortium will be
bound by the same terms and
conditions. Participants will be required
to contribute financial or equivalent inkind resources, as determined by NIST,
of at least $20,000. NIST does not
guarantee participation in the
Consortium or in any other
collaboration to any organization
submitting a Letter of Interest.

NIST Chief of Staff.

The
Council created a Citizen Science
Advisory Panel Pool in June 2017. The
Council appointed members of the
Citizen Science Advisory Panel Pool to
five Action Teams in the areas of
Volunteers, Data Management, Projects/
Topics Management, Finance, and
Communication/Outreach/Education to
develop program policies and
operations for the Council’s Citizen
Science Program.
Each Action Team has been meeting
since August 2017 to work on
developing recommendations on
program policies and operations to be
reviewed by the Council’s Citizen
Science Committee. The January 31,
2018 meeting will bring all members of
all five Action Teams together to review
and discuss draft recommendations
from each Action Team. Public
comment will be accepted at the
beginning of the meeting.
