Aims
Create a normative data repository containing 3D facial surface images, facial measurements, GWA markers and demographic descriptors from 3500 individuals aged 5 – 40.
Utilize this data repository to identify genetic loci that influence quantitative variation in facial shape
Using morphometric methods to visualize genotype-phenotype correlations
Example of a 3D facial surface captured through stereophotogrammetry

Progress
• IRB approval at all three sites (several rounds of modification)
• Built infrastructure at coordinating center (Pitt) to receive data from collection sites
• FaceBase Human Data Working Group documents and policies
• CSOC approval
• Tentative approval from NIDCR to begin recruitment
• Revised NGA imminent
