Such studies include genome-wide association studies, medical sequencing, molecular diagnostic assays, as well as association between genotype and non-clinical traits. The individual level data hosted at the dbGaP is distributed through a controlled access system. The types of data distributed through the dbGaP include phenotype data, association (GWAS) data, summary level analysis data, SRA (Short Read Archive) data, reference alignment (BAM) data, VCF (Variant Call Format) data, expression data, imputed genotype data, image data, etc. (<b>01/17/13</b>)</p></blockquote></div></div><div id="Cntnt_IndivLvlData.Deidentification_of_D"><h2 id="_Cntnt_IndivLvlData_Deidentification_of_D_">De-identification of Data</h2><div><h4 id="Cntnt_IndivLvlData.can_you_tell_me_if_sp">Can you tell me if specific individuals can be identified in the controlled access data?</h4><blockquote><p>The individual-level data submitted to the dbGaP is required to be de-identified.
