The Opioid Dependence Genetics Initiative

This initative aims to gather data from Opioid Dependence studies in Center and release the data in a series of distributions.

The following information is for Distribution 5.7. More detailed information can be found using the Statistics tool below, including customizable breakdowns by biomaterials, demographics and disease. The Other Queries button provides information on affected sibships with DNA, independent cases trios for association analysis.
