+<h2>Dec. 10, 2024 &nbsp;&nbsp; DDG2P Developmental Disorders Genotype-to-Phenotype tracks for Human (hg19/hg38)</h2>
+<p>
+We are pleased to introduce the DDG2P (Developmental Disorders Genotype-to-Phenotype) track within
+our genomic database, now available for both the
+<a href="/cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=hg19&g=decipherDDG2P&position=default" target="_blank">GRCh37/hg19</a>
+and
+<a href="/cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=hg38&g=decipherDDG2P&position=default" target="_blank">GRCh38/hg38</a>
+human genome assemblies. This track is specially curated to enhance understanding of genetic
+variants associated with developmental disorders. This track facilitates the visual exploration and
+analysis of complex genetic variations that may influence developmental disorders.</p>
+
+<p>
+The DDG2P track incorporates an intuitive color-coding system alongside detailed tooltips for an
+enhanced user experience:</p>
+
+<ul>
+  <li><font color="red">Red:</font> Indicates a loss of genetic material (deletions).</li>
+  <li><font color="blue">Blue:</font> Signifies a gain of genetic material (duplications).</li>
+  <li><font color="grey">Grey:</font> Marks areas with deletions or duplication (indel).</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>The DDG2P track's <b>mouseover</b> tooltip provides the following information about the data:</p>
+<ul>
+  <li><b>Position:</b> Chromosomal range of the CNV.</li>
+  <li><b>Type of CNV:</b> Loss, gain, or deletions/duplications.</li>
+  <li><b>Frequency:</b> Prevalence of the CNV in the population.</li>
+  <li><b>Observations:</b> Times the CNV was noted in the dataset.</li>
+  <li><b>Sample Size:</b> Number of samples analyzed.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>
+We would like to thank <a href="https://www.deciphergenomics.org/" target="_blank">DECIPHER</a> for
+making the data publicly available. We would also like to thank Yesenia Puga, Gerardo Perez, and
+Jairo Navarro for the creation and release of the DDG2P track on the UCSC Genome Browser.</p>

 <h2>Nov. 8, 2024 &nbsp;&nbsp; New GENCODE gene tracks: Human V47 (hg19/hg38) - Mouse M36
 (mm39)</h2>
 <p>
 We are happy to announce new GENCODE Gene annotation tracks, which correspond
 to <a href="https://www.ensembl.info/2024/10/18/ensembl-113-has-been-released/"
 target="_blank">Ensembl 113</a>, for three assemblies: <a target="_blank"
 href="../../cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=hg19&c=chr21&g=wgEncodeGencodeV47lift37">hg19/GRCh37</a>,
 <a target="_blank" href="../../cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=hg38&c=chr1&g=wgEncodeGencodeV47">hg38/GRCh38</a>,
 and <a target="_blank" href="../../cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=mm39&c=chr12&g=wgEncodeGencodeVM36">mm39/GRCm39</a>.
 For human, the GENCODE V47 annotations were mapped to hg38/GRCh38 and then back-mapped
 to the hg19/GRCh37 assembly. For all three assemblies, the gene sets contain the following
 tracks:</p>
