NDAR Announces the Autism Genome Project (AGP) Data Release Posted By: David Kennedy - Jun 18, 2013Tool/Resource: NIMH Data Archive / National Database for Autism Research As of September 2012, some Autism Genome Project data is now available to qualified researchers through the National Database for Autism Research (NDAR). The AGP dataset in NDAR includes raw genotypic intensity data and genotype calls. The AGP is a study of over 5,000 strictly defined ASD subjects to understand the genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity in autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). It allowed for the discovery of key features of the ASD genomic architecture as well as new susceptibility loci, developing a course for future ASD research. The project was funded by the NIMH, NICHD, NINDS, NCCR, and Autism Speaks. Link to Original Article |
