## Description

The International Genome Sample Resource (IGSR) is dedicated to enhancing the accessibility and usability of genomic data from the renowned 1000 Genomes Project. Launched with the support of the Wellcome Trust, IGSR aims to maintain an up-to-date reference data set and incorporate additional findings from ongoing genomics research. The 1000 Genomes Project, active from 2008 to 2015, produced the world’s largest public catalogue of human variation and genotype data.

IGSR not only updates this extensive dataset to align it with the latest human genome reference assembly, GRCh38, but also integrates new genomic information generated by various research initiatives. This includes high-coverage genomic sequence data and contributions from projects like GEUVADIS. Importantly, IGSR expands its reach by including data from diverse populations, thereby enriching the understanding of human genetic variation. By fostering collaboration and sharing data, IGSR plays a vital role in advancing genomics research and discovery.
