DNA Coronavirus study

[louisem]

Hi everyone. Edinburgh university are starting a DNA Coronavirus study and are very keen to find participants who already have DNA files they can share with the study. You can download your raw data files from your test company.

The link to the study is

We can really help with vital medical research here.

Thanks for posting the link, Louise.  I'm thinking of doing it as I have my DNA folder to upload.

They want my DNA data and a sample of my blood, but they're not prepared to tell me the result.  That's Scottish generosity that I can do without!

Up to you, of course, Hugh - for research purposes which requires a fully anonymised data base. 

I'd prefer they spent time analysing the data rather than communicating with me, as that's not the reason for the study.
