ELIXIR Beacon

ELIXIR Beacon allows researchers to search consented, sensitive human genetic data stored in ELIXIR Nodes in Belgium, Finland, France, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the UK, as well as in another GA4GH Driver Project, the European Genome-phenome Archive (EGA). Since 2015, ELIXIR and GA4GH have collaborated on Beacon, which aims to let any genomic data centre in the world make its data searchable with GA4GH standards.
