SFARI Gene release notes for EAGLE Scores
December 6, 2021
The ASD-relevance of genes in the SFARI Gene database will now be assessed according to a new scoring system called EAGLE (Evaluation of Autism Gene Link Evidence). This metric adds to SFARI Gene’s four ASD-confidence categories to provide an additional tool to assess a gene’s specific association to ASD rather than neurodevelopmental disorders at large.
