Abstract

A number of pharmacogenomics research centers are interested in discovering new genetic variants that are important for warfarin dosing using genome wide association studies (GWAS) and have created a consortium. Some members of the consortium have conducted GWAS on their independent cohorts, and are willing to share these data for a combined analysis. Additionally, there is an interest among these groups in working together to collect and share both whole-genome genotype and phenotype data relevant to warfarin dosing. This created an opportunity to combine the DNA samples for genotyping and then to combine the resulting genotype and associated phenotype data and to link them effectively to each other.
