Abstract

Core B Project Summary Core B (Data Management, Harmonization, and Information Transfer Core) is responsible for facilitating analysis of Alzheimer’s Disease Sequence Project (ADSP) data and other relevant projects by processing and harmonizing all relevant genetic and functional genomics (FG) data. Core B will manage all phenotype, genotype, annotation, and analysis results, and distribute data/files to all ADSP investigators and to NIA Genetics of Alzheimer’s Data Storage Site (NIAGADS), the NIA-designated qualified access repository for AD genetics research. Specific Aims are: (1) Receive and manage all relevant genotypic, phenotypic, and functional genomic data; (2) Calling SNVs, indels and structural variants (SVs) from sequencing data; (3) Develop a GCAD haplotype reference panel with GCAD WGS data for GWAS imputation; (4) Facilitate harmonization of FG/omics data by developing best practices for data processing and coordinate harmonization of ADSP FG Program and other relevant omics data; (5) Support GCAD information technology needs and information dissemination activities.
