Hi, I need to perform a GWAS with UK bIobank data with plink. Does anyone can suggest good tutorials about this? such as for the RAP portal
I have the bed bim and fam files, however I understand I need a phenotype files as well. How to find and extract phenotype data from the UK portal? Thanks
A lot of information should come with your biobank application. I'm not sure how to use this data on the RAP - I haven't used that platform yet. Check out the data accessing guide on p.8: https://biobank.ctsu.ox.ac.uk/~bbdatan/Accessing_UKB_data_v2.3.pdf
Can you access the 'main dataset' on the RAP? From there you should be able to select your phenotype data of interest, and create a phenotype file yourself. You might have to update your application basket to include your data of interest if it isn't included yet.
