What is in the EGA?

The European Genome-phenome Archive (EGA) overview

The EGA archives and distributes the results of several types of studies. Such studies include genome-wide association studies (GWAS), different purpose sequencing and molecular diagnosis assays among others. Moreover, these studies target many different kind of diseases from cancer to neurodegenerative alterations.

We summarised all this data in the charts below. The statistics are computed daily based on an updated list of studies. Each pie chart depicts a different aspect of the studies: which disease type was studied, which type of sampling method was used and what was the scope of the genomic analysis.
