So if you are interested in finding all GWAS that checked for SNPs associated with a disease of your choice: You can do this. But as far as I know there are non where you could easily obtain the raw data for case/controls (I'm no real expert on human genetics, so maybe there is already a thing like this of which I don't know about). :)Bastianhttp://opensnp.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1710169082937042837.post-42834809775044428552011-10-09T20:30:28.362-04:002011-10-09T20:30:28.362-04:00I think it's a great idea and I hope you guys ...I think it's a great idea and I hope you guys are successful. I'm sure there are plenty of academic GWAS databases already, but making one specifically targeted to encourage the public to contribute has tons of potential as a future resource. <br /><br />Good luck!Matt DiLeohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08602997050973123349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1710169082937042837.post-36777033724960785832011-10-09T17:52:10.969-04:002011-10-09T17:52:10.969-04:00Thanks for sharing our project here and your ideas...Thanks for sharing our project here and your ideas! We really are aware that this is a large project that will take lots of time and even more commitment of its users. And i totally agree that, because of privacy issues, this is not something that everybody wants to participate in. <br /><br />But there are already so many people making their data available that we want to try :)Bastianhttp://opensnp.orgnoreply@blogger.com
