The EMBL-EBI (European Bioinformatics Institute) in UK is supporting the project 'COVID-19 Genomics UK (COG-UK) Consortium'

Project: COVID-19 Genomics UK (COG-UK) Consortium

Research Group: Cardiovascular Epidemiology Unit

Project Description: The COVID-19 Genomics UK (COG-UK) Consortium aims to increase the current capacity for SARS-CoV-2 genetic sequencing in the UK. This sequencing data will be used to understand the epidemiology and spread of the virus, and to monitor and evaluate interventions for COVID-19. SARS-CoV-2 genomic data will be integrated with NHS electronic health records and other existing genomic data to generate insights into susceptibility to COVID-19.
