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.
