UI partners with ‘All of Us’ research initiative
Published on May 16, 2018
The National Institutes of Health recently launched a precision medicine study — or a model that customizes individual health care based on genes, environment, and lifestyle — called the All of Us Research Program. The UI was awarded a $3.6 million grant over a three-year period to inform the public of the study.
“We’re not enrolling (people into All of Us), we’re just trying to facilitate an environment that might be conducive to more people enrolling,” said Rema Afifi, CPH professor of community and behavioral health.
