Data Repositories

• RICHS Dataverse

  • An open data repository containing datasets and code for the Rhode Island Child Health Study (RICHS) cohort publications.

• dbGaP

  • The Rhode Island Child Health Study (RICHS) cohort phenotype table contains subject IDs, sex, gestational age, birth weight, fenton group, maternal BMI, and maternal ethnicity. Request access via link.

• Novel Regions of Variable DNA Methylation in Human Placenta associated with Newborn Neurobehavioral Traits

  • Experiment Type: Methylation profiling by array

  • Genome-wide profiling of placental DNA methylation in relation to neurobehavioral development. The Illumina 450k methylation array was used to profile 335 samples. These samples have been collected from the Rhode Island Child Health Study (RICHS).

• DNA methylation and hydroxymethylation assessment through 450K analysis of paired bisulfite and oxidative-bisulfite conversion

  • Experiment Type: Methylation profiling by genome tiling array

  • Analysis of genome-wide hydroxymethylation within infant placental tissue collected at term. These samples have been collected from the Rhode Island Child Health Study (RICHS) cohort.
