What you can do:

Search for data from wide association (GWA) studies.

Highlights:

dbGaP is a database of Genotype and Phenotype, will for the first time provide a central location for interested parties to see all study documentation and to view summaries of the measured variables in an organized and searchable web format.
The database also provides pre-computed analyses of the level of statistical association between genes and selected phenotypes.
Genotype data are obtained by using high-throughput genotyping arrays to test subjects' DNA for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), areas of the genome that have been found to vary among humans.
The initial release of dbGaP (Dec. 2006) contains data on two studies: the Age-Related Eye Diseases Study (AREDS), and the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke Parkinsonism Study, a case-controlled study that gathered DNA, cell line samples and detailed phenotypic data on 2,573 subjects.
