Project
Genetics of Type 2 Diabetes (GoT2D) Learn more >
The GoT2D consortium aims to understand the allelic architecture of type 2 diabetes through whole-genome sequencing, high-density SNP genotyping, and imputation. The reference panel based on this work is intended as a comprehensive inventory of low-frequency variants in Europeans, including SNPs, small insertions and deletions, and structural variants.
