COVID19 Host Genetic Initiative

The COVID-19 host genetics initiative is a bottom-up collaborative effort that has three main goals:

1. Provide an environment to foster the sharing of resources to facilitate COVID-19 host genetics research (e.g. protocols, questionnaires).

2. Organize analytical activities across studies to identify genetic determinants of COVID-19 susceptibility and severity.

3. Provide a platform to share the results from such activities, as well as the individual-level data where possible, to benefit the broader scientific community.

Here, we release the harmonized individual-level data for the subset of individuals participated in COVID-19 HGI.
