摘要

The NIH is posting a free online database, touting it as one of the most extensive collections of genetic and clinical data ever made freely available to researchers worldwide.Called SNP Health Association Resource (SHARe), the web-based dataset enables qualified researchers to access data from large population-based studies, starting with the Framingham Heart Study. SNP stands for single nucleotide polymorphism.
