| Resumen: | Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a rapidly progressive fatal neurodegenerative disease affecting 1 in 350 people. The aim of Project MinE is to elucidate the pathophysiology of ALS through whole-genome sequencing at least 15,000 ALS patients and 7,500 controls at 30X coverage. Here, we present the Project MinE databrowser (databrowser.projectmine.com), a unique and intuitive one-stop, open-access server that provides detailed information on genetic variation analyzed in a new and still growing set of 4,366 ALS cases and 1,832 matched controls. Through its visual components and interactive design, the browser specifically aims to be a resource to those without a biostatistics background and allow clinicians and preclinical researchers to integrate Project MinE data into their own research. The browser allows users to query a transcript and immediately access a unique combination of detailed (meta)data, annotations and association statistics that would otherwise require analytic expertise and visits to scattered resources.
