Gwas Get Variants For Trait

Search the GWAS Catalog for all genetic variants (SNPs) linked to a specific disease or trait. Accepts free-text disease/trait names (e.g., 'diabetes', 'breast cancer'), EFO ontology IDs, or EFO trait labels. Returns variant details including rsIDs, p-values, mapped genes, and genomic locations. This is the best tool for finding all GWAS variants for a disease when you do NOT already have a specific variant ID.
