Description of the Framingham Heart Study data for Genetic Analysis Workshop 13

The data for Problem 1 come from the Framingham Heart Study, centered in Framingham, Massachusetts. Originating in 1948, the Framingham Heart Study is an ongoing prospective study of risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Two cohorts have been recruited into the Study and a third cohort is currently being recruited. The Genetic Analysis Workshop 13 data set consists of genotyping information from a 10-cM genome scan along with phenotypic information on a number of phenotypes collected from the first 21 examinations of the original cohort and the first 5 examinations of the offspring cohort.
