-Among the different types of inherited and acquired genomic variants, regional genomic copy number variations (CNV) contribute - if measured by affected genomic sequences - contribute by far the largest amount of genomic changes, contributing both to many syndromic diseases as well as the vast majority of human cancers.

+Among the different types of inherited and acquired genomic variants, regional genomic copy number variations (CNV) contribute - if measured by affected genomic sequences - contribute by far the largest amount of genomic changes, contributing both to many syndromic diseases as well as the vast majority of human cancers. The [website](http://hcnv.github.io) of the _Human Copy Number Variation Community_
(hCNV) is a resource originated in ELIXIR's h-CNV Community Implementation Study
(2019-2021) with the aim to provide a resource hub and knowledge exchange space for scientists and practitioners working with - or being interested in - genomic copy number variations in health and diseases. However, the scope of the community extends beyond CNVs and includes definition of and work with other types of genomic variations with a focus on structural variants.
