Human Consortia Overview
With human consortia, Illumina helps biomedical researchers from across the world work together to design and run custom genomics assays. Illumina coordinates, members pool resources, and everyone benefits.
Consortia products include high-powered genotyping arrays and other next-generation genetic analysis tools. Human consortia may be open or confidential. From custom content to project management and bioinformatics, Illumina offers a comprehensive solution for human consortia members. The following are our currently open human consortia offerings.
Open Human Consortia
H3Africa Consortium Array
The H3Africa Consortium seeks to empower researchers with leading-edge genomics tools to study environmental and genetic factors that play a role in disease susceptibility and drug responses. With novel, genome-wide content from individuals across African populations, and built on the MEGA Array backbone, the H3Africa Consortium Array1 is designed to be an effective and comprehensive array for the study of African Genomics. H3Africa data will inform strategies to address health inequity and will lead to health benefits in Africa and beyond.

Human Consortia Products
Infinium DrugDev Consortium Array
This genotyping array was developed in collaboration with leaders in translational genomics and computational biology. It enables researchers to more effectively screen potential drug targets earlier in the development process. Learn more about this consortium.
Infinium Neuro Consortium Array
Partners from the neurogenomics community designed the Neuro Consortium Array to interrogate the genomics of neurodegenerative diseases. The consortium gathered all identified markers found in known neurodegenerative disease genes, to include in a single array. Learn more about this consortium.
Global Screening Array Consortium
This consortium developed a highly economical array for population-scale genomics and genetic risk screening. The array combines multi-ethnic genome-wide content, curated clinical research variants, and quality control markers for precision medicine research. Learn more about this consortium.
