• Whole-Exome Sequences from Imazighen and non-Imazghen from Tunisia

  Study of high-coverage whole-exome sequences from Amazigh (Tamazight-speakers) and non-Amazigh individuals (Arab-speakers) from Tunisia to analyze the impact of demography in functional genomic variation in the complex demographic context of North Africa. Amazigh individuals were sampled in Chenini and Douiret, and non-Amazigh individuals were sampled in Tunis.

• Whole genome, exome and transcriptome analysis to guide individualized cancer interpretation

  Study Design: The Cancer Alliance study was a collaboration of nine academic medical institutions in the New York city area and led by the New York Genome Center. Tumor-normal paired samples were submitted by the institutions for whole genome, whole exome and transcriptome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis at New York Genome Center. Relevant clinical histories were also collected. Raw sequence files were available to all collaborators. Variant call files were analyzed both manually by interpreters at NYGC and by IBM Watson Genome Analytics. This study was approved by a central institutional review board (IRB), Biomedical Research Alliance of New York, and by local IRBs, including Stony Brook University and Northwell Health. The study was supported in part by a grant from the IBM corporation (IBM Watson Health) to the New York Genome Center, New York Genome Center philanthropic funds and Rockefeller University grant # UL1TR000043 from the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS), and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) program. The principal investigator Robert B. Darnell MD, PhD., is a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator.

• Whole genome sequencing of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukaemia patients

  Whole genome sequencing of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukaemia patients. Matched diagnostic and germline samples were obtained from bone marrow aspirates and sequenced on the Illumina platform to characterise the underlying genetic features (DOI: 10.1038/s41375-022-01806-8).

• Neuropsychiatric Genetics of African Populations - Psychosis (NeuroGAP-Psychosis)

  The NeuroGAP-Psychosis study was conducted in South Africa, Kenya, Uganda and Ethiopia as a response to the lack of genetic diversity in large genomic studies of psychiatric disorders. The study aims to expand knowledge of the genetic and environmental risk factors for neuropsychiatric disorders in Africa through large-scale sample collection and analysis. The initial design is a case-control study in which cases are individuals with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder and controls are age, sex and ancestry matched with individuals from the same geographic location. Cases are patients who are recruited from clinical facilities, both inpatient and outpatient. Controls are people who present for treatment for general medical conditions at health facilities. Data on phenotype, mental disorders, history of physical health problems, substance use and history of past traumatic events was collected from all participants. Additionally, a sample of saliva is collected for DNA extraction. DNA samples were sent to the Broad Institute for genotyping using Illumina Infinium Global Screening Array.

• APCDR Uganda GWAS: Genome-wide sequence variation and susceptibility loci for cardiometabolic traits in a sub-Saharan African population (UG2G component)

  Genomic studies in African populations provide unique opportunities to understand disease aetiology, human genetic diversity and population history in a regional and a global context. To leverage the relative benefits of different strategies, we undertook a combined approach of genotyping and whole-genome sequencing (WGS) in a population-based study of 6,400 individuals from a geographically defined rural community in South-West Uganda. We present data from 4,778 individuals with genotypes for ~2.2 million SNPs from the Uganda GWAS resource (UGWAS), and sequence data on up to 1,978 individuals spanning 41.5M SNPs and 4.5M indels (UG2G); 343 individuals overlap between the two datasets. We highlight the value of the largest sequence panel from Africa to date as a global resource for variant discovery, imputation and understanding the mutational spectrum and its clinical relevance in African populations. Alongside phenotype data, we provide a rich new genomic resource for researchers in Africa and globally.

• Khoe-San genome Project (KSGP)

  The Khoe-San Genome Project (KSGP) includes whole genome data generated for 190 study participants from Southern Africa (Namibia and South Africa) representing people speaking a Namibian Khoe-San language (n=150, 12 groups) or regional non-Khoe-San groups (n=40), specifically defined here as Namibian Himba (n=10), South African Southern Bantu (n=12 and representing the Ubuntu Genome Project led by the University of Limpopo) or South African Coloured/European (n=18). Deep whole genome data has been generated for the purposes of cataloguing the extent of regional genetic diversity, creating population specific references and evolutionary trajectories, while creating a population-matched panel of normal (PoN) genetic diversity required for disease associated studies across the region.

• Whole-Exome Sequences from Imazighen and non-Imazghen from Algeria

  Study of high-coverage whole-exome sequences from Amazigh (Tamazight-speakers) and non-Amazigh individuals (Arab-speakers) from Algeria to analyze the impact of demography in functional genomic variation in the complex demographic context of North Africa. Amazigh individuals were sampled in Oum El Bouaghi, Batna, Khenchela, and Ghardaïa, and non-Amazigh individuals were sampled in Algiers.
