Genomics
Global Screening Array data is available for download through The National Institute on Aging Genetics of Alzheimer’s Disease Data Storage Site (NIAGADS) and includes the following:
- GWAS Data: Original genotype data from the GSA array, containing 1008 scans derived from 993 unique subjects (including 960 LASI-DAD subjects from the 100 Genomes Project)
- 1000 G Imputed Data: Genotype data imputed to the 1000G reference panel (phase 3 v5)
- TopMed Imputed Data: Genotype data imputed to the TOPMed reference panel (r2)
Whole Genome Sequencing data is available for download through The National Institute on Aging Genetics of Alzheimer’s Disease Data Storage Site (NIAGADS) as part of the Alzheimer’s Disease Sequencing Program Umbrella release 4.
Neuroimaging
Neuroimaging data for a subsample of Wave 1 respondents (N=137) are available through the Image and Data Archive (IDA) online database hosted by the Laboratory of Neuro Imaging (IDA) at the University of Southern California. All available MRI modalities are available to download in DICOM or NIFTI formats. Currently, the LASI-DAD neuroimaging data are hosted under a restricted-sharing policy.
