Genomics Data Commons
The Genomic Data Commons, a next-generation platform that enables unprecedented data access, analysis and sharing for cancer research, publicly launched at the University of Chicago on June 6, opening the door to discoveries for this complex set of diseases.
The Genomic Data Commons went live with approximately 4.1 petabytes of data from National Cancer Institute-supported research programs, including some of the largest and most comprehensive cancer genomics datasets in the world—such as The Cancer Genome Atlas and Therapeutically Applicable Research to Generate Effective Treatments and more than 14,000 anonymized patient cases. One petabyte equals 1 million gigabytes.

Cancer Genomics HubThe Cancer Genomics Hub (CGHub) is a secure repository for storing, cataloging, and accessing cancer genome sequences, alignments, and mutation information from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) consortium and related projects. CGHub gives scientific researchers the statistical power of large cancer genome datasets to attack the molecular complexity of cancer.

Gene Expression Omnibus
GEO is a public functional genomics data repository supporting MIAME-compliant data submissions. Array- and sequence-based data are accepted. Tools are provided to help users query and download experiments and curated gene expression profiles. -
Human Gene Mutation DatabaseThe Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD®) represents an attempt to collate known (published) gene lesions responsible for human inherited disease. and is maintained in Cardiff by D.N. Cooper, E.V. Ball, P.D. Stenson, A.D. Phillips, K. Howells, S. Heywood, M.J. Hayden, M.E. Mort and M.P. Horan.

NIMH Repository and Genomics Resource
The NIMH Center, now known as NIMH Repository and Genomics Resource (NIMH-RGR) plays a key role in facilitating psychiatric genetic research by providing a collection of over 150,000 well characterized, high quality patient and control samples from a wide-range of mental disorders.

NIH Supported Data Sharing Repositories
This table lists NIH-supported data repositories that make data accessible for reuse. Most accept submissions of appropriate data from NIH-funded investigators (and others), but some restrict data submission to only those researchers involved in a specific research network. Also included are resources that aggregate information about biomedical data and information sharing systems. The table can be sorted according by name and by NIH Institute or Center and may be searched using keywords so that you can find repositories more relevant to your data. Links are provided to information about submitting data to and accessing data from the listed repositories.
