<p>The Finland-United States Investigation of NIDDM Genetics (FUSION) study is a long-term effort to identify genetic variants that    predispose to type 2 diabetes (T2D) or that impact the variability of T2D-related quantitative traits. The initial effort involved    linkage analysis of affected-sibling-pair (ASP) families based on over 5,000 individuals living in Finland, and association fine mapping    based on these family members and additional T2D cases and controls.  Recently we completed a genome-wide association scan on 1161 T2D    cases and 1174 normal glucose tolerant (NGT) controls.  Individual-level data is available here for the 919 T2D cases and 787 NGT    controls who reconsented to the use of their data or are deceased. Version 3 adds individual-level data for additional phenotypic variables.</p>

Mapping Genes for NIDDM: Design of the Finland—United States Investigation of NIDDM Genetics (FUSION) Study

A large set of Finnish affected sibling pair families with type 2 diabetes suggests susceptibility loci on chromosomes 6, 11, and 14.
