Loading Data
Multi sample files
The files from Rare Disease studies (RD38 & RD37) contain more than one sample per file. In average, 2 samples per file.
Single sample files
The files from Cancer Germline studies (CG38) contain one sample per file. Compared with the Rare Disease, these files are smaller in size, therefore, the load is slightly faster.
