Accelerating Medicines Partnership expands reach, potential of type 2 diabetes engine. Researchers funded by the National Institutes of Health and the Foundation for the NIH (FNIH) have expanded a recently launched online library, called a knowledge portal, which allows open-access searching of human genetic and clinical information on type 2 diabetes. Individual data will remain confidential. The portal (link is external) includes information from several major international networks, collected from decades of research.
