On August 8th 2014, we, Tohoku University’s Medical Megabank, published an allele frequency of more than 5% on known variants in order to advance the validation of our Genome Reference Panel Draft. Though variant information of more than 1% will be sold in the future, we aim to improve the verification and accuracy of our draft version. Therefore, we are proud to announce that we are accepting research proposals aimed at achieving an allele frequency of less than 1% within variants.
1.) Joint Research related to single nucleotide polymorphism with in the
ToMMo Genome Reference Panel Draft.
2.) Joint Research related to deleting, inserting, and copying within the
ToMMo Genome Reference Panel Draft.
3.) Joint Research contrasting the ToMMo Genome Reference Panel Draft to
healthy people.
4.) Joint Research involving a case-compare study on an SNP array used on
Japanese people.
