Data availability

The data described in this manuscript come solely from the NHGRI-EBI Catalog of published GWAS (otherwise known as the ‘GWAS Catalog’) available at https://www.ebi.ac.uk/gwas/. Full and unreserved attribution is made to the GWAS Catalog team both here and on the dashboard itself, and re-use of their data is subject to the terms of use for EMBL-EBI services.

Code availability

The code powering the dashboard is available on Zenodo (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3600471; https://zenodo.org/record/3600472) and GitHub (https://github.com/OxfordDemSci/gwasdiversitymonitor).
