Speakers will include health researchers of the All of Us Research Program (AoU) to talk more about their experiences and the benefits of utilizing the AoU Research Program database. They will also discuss how the program can help researchers overcome barriers in reaching diverse communities and provide important data in aiding the development of precision medicine and advancing health equity for diverse communities.
Speakers include:
- Dr. Martin Mendoza, Director of Health Equity for AoU
- Dr. Stephanie Cook, AoU Research Ambassador
The All of Us Research Program from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) is a historic effort to collect and study data from one million or more people living in the United States. People who join share information about their health, habits, and what it's like where they live. The goal of the program is better health for all of us. The program is committed to recruiting a diverse participant pool that includes members of groups that have been left out of research in the past.
