The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has developed central data repositories to archive and distribute the results of studies provided by Contributing Investigators examining the relationship between genomic data (e.g., genotype, sequence, or epigenetic information) and phenotype. Such studies include genome-wide association studies, medical sequencing, and molecular diagnostic assays. Implicit in the establishment of the NIH data repositories, for example the database of Genotypes and Phenotypes (dbGaP), is the view that scientific progress in this area will be greatly enhanced if the data produced by these studies are readily available to all investigators in the research community.
