Brief description This proposal is to build a new national resource for medical research. The project will integrate human medical research resources (including DNA) in WA with the core WA Data Linkage System, with complementary initiatives in bioinformatics and biostatistics. The resulting unique facility will comprise one of the largest and best-characterised population-based enabling facilities for epidemiological and genetic epidemiological research in the world, and will considerably enhance the national research capacity.
