Description: THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 29, 2016. Study of genetic and life-style risk factors associated with common diseases based on analysis of European twins. The population cohorts used in the Genomeutwin study consist of Danish, Finnish, Italian, Dutch, English, Australian and Swedish twins and the MORGAM population cohort. This project will apply and develop new molecular and statistical strategies to analyze unique European twin and other population cohorts to define and characterize the genetic, environmental and life-style components in the background of health problems like obesity, migraine, coronary heart disease and stroke, representing major health care problems worldwide. The participating 8 twin cohorts form a collection of over 0.6 million pairs of twins. Tens of thousands of DNA samples with informed consents for genetic studies of common diseases have already been stored from these population-based twin cohorts. Studies targeted to cardiovascular traits are now being undertaken in MORGAM, a prospective case-cohort study. MORGAM cohorts include approximately 6000 individuals, drawn from population-based cohorts consisting of more than 80 000 participants who have donated DNA samples.
