Heart Imaing Genetics Knowledge Portal
Integrating data and knowledge to study heart health and disease More website functions coming soon
Welcome to Heart-KP!
This knowledge portal serves as a platform for accelerating research into human hearts.
Construction is ongoing on this portal. We strive to cover the full spectrum of biomedical data and knowledge about heart health and disease, especially on heart imaging and genetics/genomics.

We have analyzed the genetic architecture of 82 heart imaging traits from more than 40,000 individuals in
Our research results are made public through the following resources.

We build a GWAS browser using the PheWeb tool to explore GWAS results for heart imaging traits. Currently, we support GWAS results of 82 traits trained in the UKB British cohort (n~31,000), including 64 left ventricle traits, 4 left atrium traits, 4 right ventricle traits, 4 right atrium traits, 3 ascending aorta traits, and 3 descending aorta traits.


GWAS summary statistics for the 82 heart imaging traits can be free download from Zenodo:
