Genetic Association Information Network

The Foundation for the National Institutes of Health, the National Institutes of Health, and Pfizer Global Research & Development have announced the launch of a unique public-private medical research partnership - the Genetic Association Information Network (GAIN) - to unravel the genetic causes of common diseases over the next three years. The information derived from GAIN will be publicly available to researchers world-wide. GAIN brings new scientific and financial resources to the NIH's existing whole genome association programs, encouraging all partners, across and beyond NIH, to work together toward the common goal of understanding the genetic contributions to common diseases
