We have also added three new tracks in support of a new ClinGen composite. These changes have been made in an effort to support our clinical users, with an emphasis on facilitating Genome Browser use in variant interpretation.</p> <a name="093020a"></a> <h3>Updates to ClinVar Variants track</h3> <p> The <a target="_blank" href="/cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=hg38&c=chrX&g=clinvar">ClinVar Variants track</a> has been reorganized based on variant length.
