Abstract
We provide some observations on the role of consortia in GWAS. We include 2 surveys (addressed to GWAS Investigators and to GWAS Consortia) sent to GWAS investigators in the spring of 2011. Tables and figures derived from the data are included. We also provide a summary table with some basic data on 110 consortia. We invite the community to visit the WikiGene site (http://www.wikigenes.org/GWAS/consortia.html) where this data may be further corrected and updated.
