Compiling a complete Atlas of Variant Effects for all 20,000 human genes, not to mention potentially hundreds of thousands of noncoding regulatory elements, will require an international collaborative effort involving thousands of researchers, clinicians and technologists. Comparing this initiative to some of the landmark genomic collaborative achievements of the past 30 years highlights some of the key challenges to be addressed.
