The International Genome Sample Resource (IGSR) collection of open human genomic variation resources

To sustain and develop the largest fully open human genomic resources the International Genome Sample Resource (IGSR) (https://www.internationalgenome.org) was established. It is built on the foundation of the 1000 Genomes Project, which created the largest openly accessible catalogue of human genomic variation developed from samples spanning five continents. IGSR (i) maintains access to 1000 Genomes Project resources, (ii) updates 1000 Genomes Project resources to the GRCh38 human reference assembly, (iii) adds new data generated on 1000 Genomes Project cell lines, (iv) shares data from samples with a similarly open consent to increase the number of samples and populations represented in the resources and (v)…
