Abstract

Goals The objective of the EpiGenCOV consortium is to assemble a large collection of French cohorts for the implementation of genome-wide association studies of COVID19 phenotypes. The data from this collection will allow us to better understand the roles of host genetic factors involved in the biological mechanisms linked to the susceptibility and severity of COVID19, but also the numerous symptoms associated with the infection as well as the "covid long ".
