Advancing Human Genetics Research and Drug Discovery through Exome Sequencing of the UK Biobank

2020-11-04

Abstract excerpt

The UK Biobank Exome Sequencing Consortium (UKB-ESC) is a unique private/public partnership between the UK Biobank and eight biopharma companies that will sequence the exomes of all ∼500,000 UK Biobank participants. Here we describe early results from the exome sequence data generated by this consortium for the first ∼200,000 UKB subjects and the key features of this project that enabled the UKB-ESC to come togeth...
