PGP-UK metadata

Metadata is data that describes other data. On this page, we've detailed the metadata that are available for filtering Personal Genome Project UK (PGP-UK) pilot data in the associated public project on the CGC. The PGP-UK pilot dataset contains 201 files from 13 individuals, as downloaded from the PGP-UK Data Portal on 18 March 2018.

Filter the data by metadata fields to find the PGP-UK data you’re interested in. Alternatively, you can sort the available files by metadata fields or filter via tags that we’ve added to the files.
