Intro

Delve provides clinicians with a smart, integrated search platform for clinical genomics.

To diagnose a genetic disorder, a clinician needs to collect information from a variety of sources and correlate them with the patient phenotype. Delve provides an intuitive interface to view and process this data, along with high-level search and natural language processing functions.

To diagnose a genetic disorder, a clinician needs to collect information from a variety of sources and correlate them with the patient phenotype. Calling our our experience conducting research in an academic environment alongside our software development skills we developed Delve: an open-source platform to streamline the clinical genomics workflow.

Delve enables automatic aggregation of information from disparate online/local sources into a single, unified platform. The project adopts a modular microservice architecture. Each source module of delve provides a well defined interface to a genomics data resource (e.g. OMIM, clinVAR, pubMED, …) via a gRPC API. These sources are then combined via a metasearch service. Users can query the metasearch service to retrieve unified data from all source modules.
