1) Projects
ENCODE
Encyclopedia of DNA Elements: a comprehensive parts list of functional elements in the human genome. https://www.encodeproject.org/​
1000 Genomes
most genetic variants with frequencies of at least 1% in the populations studied. http://www.internationalgenome.org/​
TCGA
The Cancer Genome Atlas: From the analysis of over 11,000 tumors from 33 of the most prevalent forms of cancer, the Pan-Cancer Atlas provides a uniquely comprehensive, in-depth, and interconnected understanding of how, where, and why tumors arise in humans. As a singular and unified point of reference, the Pan-Cancer Atlas is an essential resource for the development of new treatments in the pursuit of precision medicine.
