purposes of research, as at eMERGE sites.9 Further, some biobanks are linking genetic and non-genetic data, such as neuroimaging scans, to look for connections between individuals’ genetic make-up and brain abnormalities;103,104 such linked databases have potential to generate non-genetic IFs and IRRs for potential return from those neuroimaging scans. Finally, a number of biobanks are collecting information on environmental exposures.9,105 These data sources may generate IFs and IRRs for potential return as well, such as discovery of a previously unrecognized exposure of acute health importance and actionability.
