Does the genotyping facility have access to any phenotypic data?
The genotyping facility does not have personal identifying information or advance access to any phenotype data or personal identifying information. The genotype data and coded phenotype data will be merged in the GAIN Database and will be made available through a Controlled Access process. Although genotype data on individual study participants (without any link to individual phenotype or environmental data) will be available on the GAIN Database within dbGaP, phenotype data linked to genotypes will be available only through the Controlled Access process. Investigators from the genotyping facility will have the same rights to request access to these data as anyone else. Top of Page E.
