## Description

TreeWAS is an innovative database developed at the Oxford Big Data Institute, utilizing a Bayesian approach to analyze genetic risk profiles across various disease classifications. This resource aids researchers in understanding the complex relationships between diseases, leveraging data from the UK Biobank, which encompasses extensive genetic and healthcare information from over 500,000 participants. 

The database contains insights on 36,212 SNPs linked to 19,155 diagnostic terms from hospitalization episode statistics, alongside self-reported statistics on a narrower selection of variants. What sets TreeWAS apart is its ability to combine shared signals across related diseases while identifying unique genetic risk patterns, enriching our understanding of genetic pleiotropy. 

With a wealth of association results—693 million in hospitalization data and over 13 million from self-reports—TreeWAS informs therapeutic strategies and contributes to critical research in genomics. Supported by renowned institutions and foundations, the TreeWAS Database is a vital tool for genetics researchers aiming to decode the intricate web of genetic influence on health and disease.
