The GDC centers around the idea of building cohorts, or groups of cases, before analyzing or downloading data. The Cohort Builder allows users to filter on the rich set of GDC clinical, biospecimen, and available data elements to create custom cohorts. |
The Cohort Builder is accessible through the GDC Data Portal. Detailed instructions for the GDC Cohort Builder are available in the GDC Data Portal User's Guide.
