Study Description

The NHGRI Next Generation Mendelian Genetics project uses exome resequencing to identify variants in unsolved Mendelian diseases.

The research study procedures included the collection of a fasting blood sample, 2 medical history/life style questionnaires and a measurement of subjects' waist circumference that were completed many years ago.
