Welcome to the Genome of the Netherlands
Table of Contents
Ultra-sharp genetic group portrait of the Dutch
What genetic variation is to be found in the Dutch indigenous population? Detailed knowledge about this is not only interesting in itself, it also helps to extract useful biomedical information from Dutch biobanks. The Dutch biobank collaboration BBMRI-NL has initiated the extensive Rainbow Project ‘Genome of the Netherlands’ (GoNL) because it offers unique opportunities for science and for the development of new treatments and diagnostic techniques. A close-up look at the DNA of 750 Dutch people—250 trio’s of two parents and an adult child—plus a global genetic profile of large numbers of Dutch will disclose a wealth of new information, new insights, and possible applications.
The Genome of the Netherlands is a consortium of the UMCG, LUMC, Erasmus MC, VUMC and UMCU, led by Professor Cisca Wijmenga. All the sequencing work is done by BGI Hong Kong. The project started out in 2010, and in all probability the first analysis results will be published towards the end of 2011.
Welkom bij het Genoom van Nederland
Haarscherp genetisch groepsportret van Nederlanders
Hoe ziet de genetische variatie binnen de autochtone Nederlandse bevolking eruit? Gedetailleerde kennis hierover is niet alleen op zich interessant, maar helpt ook om meer bruikbare biomedische kennis te genereren uit Nederlandse biobanken. Het Regenboogproject Het Genoom van Nederland (GoNL) van BBMRI-NL biedt daarom unieke kansen voor de wetenschap en voor de ontwikkeling van nieuwe behandelingen en diagnostische technieken. Door ‘whole exome sequencing’ van het genoom van 750 Nederlanders—250 trio’s van twee ouders en een volwassen kind—en door een globaal genetisch profiel van grote aantallen Nederlanders bij elkaar te brengen, ontstaat een schat aan nieuwe informatie, nieuwe inzichten en mogelijke toepassingen voor de (bio)medische wetenschap.
Het Genoom van Nederland is een consortium van het UMCG, LUMC, Erasmus MC, VUMC en UMCU onder aanvoering van prof.dr. Cisca Wijmenga. BGI Hong Kong voert alle sequencing-werkzaamheden uit. Het project ging in 2010 van start. De eerste analyseresultaten zullen naar verwachting eind 2011 worden bekendgemaakt.
Access to the data
Data processing is still in progress. If you want to participate in the analysis or have interest in using preliminary data please:
- Fill in the attached form a short description of your research proposal and email to [h.h.m.lauvenberg@… Hélène Lauvenberg]
- Your research proposal will be evaluated by the GoNL steering committee
- If positive, you will receive a non-disclosure agreement
- You will be granted access to the data using a suitable method
Types of data available:
- Cohort level data, such as SNP/indel/CNV calls and frequency will be made available for public access at this website.
- Individual level data, such as the sequence reads, are available at request using above procedure.
