1000 Genomes Project data now publicly available
The U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) and Amazon Web Services (AWS), an Amazon.com company, have completed the 1000 Genomes Project, and it is now available on AWS as a publicly available dataset.
The 1000 Genomes Project is an international research effort coordinated by a consortium of 75 companies and organizations to establish the most detailed catalogue of human genetic variation. The project has grown to 200 terabytes of genomic data including DNA sequenced from more than 1,700 individuals that researchers can now access on AWS for use in disease research.
The 1000 Genomes Project aims to include the genomes of more than 2,600 individuals from 26 populations around the world, and the NIH will continue to add the remaining genome samples to the public dataset this year.
