European Genome-phenome Archive (EGA) is a permanent repository for all types of potentially identifiable genetic and phenotypic data from biomedical research projects.

This webinar aims to cover a quick introduction to EGA by exploring topics ranging from searching and accessing data in EGA to interpreting Data Use Ontology (DUO) codes. We will also demonstrate downloading data with an EGA test account. 

Who is this course for?

Anyone who is interested in secure archiving or accessing distribution services for controlled access to human biomedical omics data. An undergraduate level knowledge of biology, and in particular some knowledge of genetics and genomics, would be an advantage. 

Outcomes

By the end of the webinar you will be able to:

• Explore the scope of EGA
• Explain the usage of DUO codes
• Access and download data from EGA
