Consortium design. Consortium structure including funding agencies, research groups, the Project MinE general assembly, sub-projects, and data management. Each research group obtains funding using uniform grant proposals shared between the research groups. DNA samples are provided to the sequencing providers via the Project MinE general assembly. Samples are sequenced, and data is centrally stored (the size of the data for the first 1,935 samples is indicated in parentheses; the full dataset for N = 22,500 samples will be ~1.7 petabytes). External data can also be contributed to and integrated into the dataset. Different research groups, including external groups, collaborate to work on specific projects.
