Include UKBB catalog #8

Open welchr opened 6 years ago

Include the UK BioBank GWAS hits across all traits as another catalog, in addition to EBI.

This overlaps with a current task to include these hits in the LocusZoom API, so this is a timely addition.

Open questions:

Is the data public?
Does their license allow re-distributing?

As far as I understood (also from Christian Fuchsberger), yes. However, the GWAS hits that we downloaded at Eurac were not published by UK Biobank, but were generated from the HRC imputed data by the Neil Lab, who made the results available for download here.
