Finally, other databases (e.g. CIViC) have had success utilizing a community curation model. In an effort to enable community feedback to address the complexity of grouping and representing drug–gene interaction data, the DGIdb will be moved to a similar model. Expected changes include users creating login accounts, suggesting sources or claims for inclusion and verification that a source or claim has enough support to be included within the DGIdb. These changes will require significant code updates but will greatly increase the utility of the DGIdb.
