Open Targets Gentropy is a Python package to facilitate the interpretation and analysis of GWAS and functional genomic studies for target identification. This package contains a toolkit for the harmonisation, statistical analysis and prioritisation of genetic signals to assist drug discovery.

Key Features:

  • Specialized Datatypes: Introduces essential genetics datatypes like StudyLocus, LocusToGene, and SummaryStatistics.
  • Performance-Oriented: Optimized for large-scale genetic data analysis, including locus-to-gene scoring, fine mapping, and colocalization analysis.
  • User-Friendly: The package is designed to be intuitive, allowing both beginners and experienced researchers to conduct complex genetic with ease.

About Open Targets

Open Targets is a pre-competitive, public-private partnership that uses human genetics and genomics data to systematically identify and prioritise drug targets. Through large-scale genomic experiments and the development of innovative computational techniques, the partnership aims to help researchers select the best targets for the development of new therapies.
