Getting Started with GWAS Normalisation

version: 0.4.2b0

The gwas-norm package is a toolkit to normalise GWAS summary statistics flat files. It aims to handle some of the most common scenarios and produce a flat file with:

1. A standardised column order
2. Uniform genome assembly
3. Indel noramlisation, variant validation
4. Latest variant IDs
5. Fixing out of range p-values
6. Basic functional annotations

There is online documentation for gwas-norm.

Installing the Python package

gwas-norm can be installed via PyPi or Conda.

PyPi:

pip install gwas-norm

Conda:

conda install -c conda-forge -c bioconda -c cfin gwas-norm

It is recommended to use Python version 3.13, but should work on earlier versions, although it has not been tested extensively on them. If in doubt, you can install then clone the repositary and run pytest ./tests.
