A large-scale biomedical database and research resource, that can be accessed globally by approved researchers, to enable scientific discoveries.
- 🧬 We’re excited to announce that we have sequenced the whole genomes of 500,000 UK Biobank volunteers! 🧬 The dataset is the world’s largest of its kind and we’re proud to make it available to approved researchers around the world 🌍 ow.ly/qsyy50QcJ7w #500KGenomes
- We are inviting 20,000 #UKBiobank participants and their children and grandchildren (over 18yrs) to contribute to a major study of #Covid19 immunity. The study will provide an evidence-based approach to moving out of lock-down: ukbiobank.ac.uk/2020/05/uk-bio… #research @DHSCgovuk
- Great news! You can now browse the #500KGenomes summary statistics for all UK Biobank participants free of charge using our Allele Frequency Browser. The browser was launched on behalf of the Whole Genome Sequencing consortium. 🧬afb.ukbiobank.ac.uk
- #UKBiobank is on Github: github.com/UK-Biobank Find code and tools to help you to use the resource. The UKB-RAP-Notebooks repository provides helpful and easily followed notebooks to assist new users with using the UKB-RAP: github.com/UK-Biobank/UKB… #research #openscience
- 📰 Published in @Nature today: 13 leading biopharmaceutical companies have collaborated to create the world's largest proteomic dataset using UK Biobank blood samples, forming the most detailed study of how genetics & proteins influence disease.
- Register today to attend the #UKBiobank Scientific hybrid Conference 21 June 22, to find out how you can access the world’s largest biomedical database for your #healthresearch #UKBSC22 bit.ly/3wXa1oW
- Together with @The_MRC @calico @ChanZuckerberg @cziscience we will create the world’s largest longitudinal imaging dataset. By capturing a repeat set of whole body scans on 60,000 UK Biobank participants, researchers will be able to assess changes in their physiology over time.
- We’ve scanned our 50,000th participant as part of the world’s largest imaging study to scan 100k - an amazing achievement! #Thankyou to #UKBiobank participants & staff members who’ve helped us reach this fantastic milestone. Received an invite? Book today: 0800 0276 276
00:00 - Wow - we have now scanned 47,049 #UKBiobank participants! Thank you to all our staff and participants for your fantastic commitment to health research! We are well on our way towards our goal of 100,000 and couldn't do it without you #1of500K #WorldRadiographyDay2019
- #UKBiobank launches a new scientific study measuring circulating proteins to better understand the link between #genetics and human disease. The study, commissioned by a biopharmaceutical consortium, is a major step forward in #proteomics and will enhance the #UKBiobank database.
- REGISTRATION IS OPEN! #UKBiobank Scientific Conference LONDON 21 June 2022. Join us to find out about novel & exciting research into ageing, environmental exposures, and genetics, plus how we can empower greater global access & collaboration #UKBSC22 bit.ly/3ILWoec
- Join the discussion with our expert speakers, 21 June in London & online, on how to enhance global access to the most world’s most comprehensive biomedical research resource #BigData #Health bit.ly/3simJLF
- New exome sequence data on 50K #UKBiobank participants available today for the global health research community, collaboration: @Regeneron & @GSK An unprecedented resource to understand human biology & aid therapeutic discovery ow.ly/skCJ30nYsLq @The_MRC @wellcometrust
