General description

The NCBI Allele Frequency Aggregator (ALFA) was designed to make allele frequency datasets from dbGaP studies the largest, free, and most complete aggregated variant datasets available. Over two million individuals, up to billions of variations, thousands of phenotypes, and molecular test datasets comprise the database dbGaP. Tremendous opportunities exist to investigate and research genetic differences within human populations and find genetic factors affecting health and diseases to enhance diagnosis, treatment, and prevention.
