UKB Research Analysis Platform (“RAP”)
Accelerator Package for use with UKB

DNAnexus offers the following set of services as the UKB RAP Accelerator Package. 

 1. xVantage Credits
For the avoidance of doubt, each unit of xVantage Credit is equal to one hour of Professional Services. DNAnexus shall provide the Professional Services on a time and material basis. Credits can be applied to a number of professional services engagements, including, but not limited to the following: 
  • Pilot Studies - Our scientists work with clients to carry out pilot studies and provide scientific reports of methods and findings. Research will likely be carried out using existing apps such as REGENIE, Swiss-Army-Knife, and DxJupyterlab.
  • Custom Tools - Our bioinformaticians recommend tools for developing custom tools to enable researchers to rapidly and effortlessly iterate over multiple rounds of scientific questioning. Deliverables may include an instructional report detailing the tool specification and example usage. Alternatively, clients may request their own tools to be ported as a DNAnexus app or workflow.
  • Scientific Consultation - Our scientists help clients design the appropriate analysis, assist in interpretation results, provide statistical power assessments, and provide suggestions for meta-analysis to achieve a level of statistical power beyond what UKB data alone may provide.


Credits are also used to define units of training courses from DNAnexus Academy. Training courses and corresponding credits can be made available upon request.
