What is PLINK?

PLINK is listed in our database as a program that opens or converts the file formats shown on this page. It runs on Cross-platform. It is published by Christopher Chang. The formats it works with include .PERM, .CMH, .PROB, .TRAW and .ADJUSTED.

You can get the official version from the developer's website (www.cog-genomics.org); we do not host the installer and only point you to the original source. A detailed, hand-checked description of PLINK is on the way; for now the information here comes straight from our database.
