What's New ?

We've added 1 new Comparison Chart to the Repository of P³G Comparison Charts;
We've introduced a new Inter-Catalogues search tool that lets you track studies across different P³G Catalogues.

The addition of new studies to our Catalogues helps increase the quantity and quality of the information available. If you have a study to submit, let us know.

Thanks to all of our partners!

P³G Observatory

The Observatory is a collaborative work-in-progress. Your comments and suggestions are most welcome. To contribute to our next update, please contact us.

What is P³G? The Public Population Project in Genomics (P³G) is a not-for-profit and non-commercial organization whose objective is to promote collaboration between researchers in the field of population genomics. P³G seeks to foster collaboration, optimize design, promote harmonization of biobanks, and facilitate transfer of knowledge. The P³G aspires to the highest standards of ethical comportment and research integrity. It has adopted a Charter of Fundamental Principles that underpins its activities.

What is the P³G Observatory? The Observatory is a central Internet repository of scientific information and tools aimed at facilitating the development, realization and harmonization of research projects. It includes a series of Catalogues documenting large population-based biobanks worldwide and allows the rapid overview of the similarities and differences, and potential for harmonization between participant biobanks. The DataSHaPER, a series of tools aimed at facilitating harmonization and at supporting biobanks to design questionnaires, and other data-collection devices. The Repository of Information and Tools aims to provide access to reference scientific and technical information across biobanking domains of activities. Furthermore, the Cores and Foundation Projects interface provides information on specific scientific actions of P³G partner projects.

If you would like to receive updates on the Observatory and foundation projects; please provide your contact information.
