| LHA’s strategic plan 2008-13 identified the need for a NSHD DNA repository to support genetic studies of human health, disease and ageing that make the best use of the available genetics resources, and the well characterised phenotypic resources. LHA obtained approval from the Central Manchester Research Ethics Committee for genetic studies of lifelong health, disease and ageing, with amendments to include Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS), epigenomic studies and epigenome wide studies being subsequently approved. | LHA’s strategic plan 2008-13 identified the need for a NSHD DNA repository to support genetic studies of human health, disease and ageing that make the best use of the available genetics resources, and the well characterised phenotypic resources.
