BioVU: DNA and Databank

BioVU provides enabling resource for exploration of the relationships among genetic variation, disease susceptibility, and variable drug responses, and represents a key first step in moving the emerging sciences of genomics and pharmacogenomics from research tools to clinical practice.  A major goal of the resource is to generate datasets that incorporate de-identified information derived from medical records and genotype information to identify factors that affect disease susceptibility, disease progression, and/or drug response.

BioVU partners closely with VANTAGE and VANGARD (see below) to generate and analyze genomic data from BioVU DNA samples.
