Genetic Association Information Network (GAIN)
Description
The Genetic Association Information Network (GAIN) is a public-private partnership of
the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health, Inc. (FNIH) and includes
partnerships with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the private sector. Through
a series of whole genome association studies, using samples from existing case-control
studies of patients with common diseases, GAIN will contribute to the identification of
genetic pathways that make us more susceptible to these diseases and thus facilitate
discovery of new molecular targets for prevention, diagnosis, and treatment.
GAIN aims to release data as broadly and rapidly as possible, with equal opportunity
for access by all potential users. To promote the responsible use of the GAIN Project
Datasets, investigators, and their institutions, seeking access to genotypic or phenotypic
data will submit a Data Access Request Form and Data Use Certification specifying their
intended use of the data and acknowledging their agreement with the terms and conditions
described.
