note = "Funding Information: Acknowledgements This research was made possible through access to the data and findings generated by two pilot studies for the 100,000 Genomes Project. The enrolment was coordinated for one by the NIHR BioResource and for the other by Genomics England Ltd (GEL), a company wholly owned by the Department of Health in the United Kingdom. These pilot studies were mainly funded by grants from the NIHR in England to Cambridge University Hospitals and GEL, respectively. Additional funding was provided by the British Heart Foundation (BHF), MRC, NHS England, the Wellcome Trust and many other fund providers (see funding acknowledgements for individual researchers). The pilot studies use data provided by patients and their close relatives and collected by the NHS and other healthcare providers as part of their care and support. The vast majority of participants in the two pilot studies have been enrolled in the NIHR BioResource. We thank all volunteers for their participation and the NIHR Biomedical Research Centres (BRC), NIHR BioResource Centres, NHS Trust Hospitals, NHS Blood and Transplant and their staff for their contribution. This research has been conducted using the UK Biobank resource under Application Number 9616, granting access to DNA samples and accompanying participant data. UK Biobank has received funding from the MRC, Wellcome Trust, Department of Health, BHF, Diabetes UK, Northwest Regional Development Agency, Scottish Government and Welsh Assembly Government. The MRC and Wellcome Trust had a key role in the decision to establish the UK Biobank. A. McMahon and J.
