The Early Growth Genetics (EGG) Consortium exists to facilitate joint analysis of genetic data from multiple studies in order to identify human genomic loci that impact a variety of human traits related to early growth (fetus to young adult). By conducting our collaborative studies, we aim to improve understanding of underlying biological mechanisms, causal factors, and related health outcomes. As well as sharing data, we aim to share expertise and skills, and to enhance opportunities for early career researchers.
