The National Institutes of Health (NIH) All of Us Research Program is enrolling one million or more people who reflect the diversity of the United States. For various reasons, Latinos have traditionally not participated in medical studies or clinical trials. The NIH is doing a special push this year to increase participation from the Latino community. People ages 18 and older, regardless of health status, will be able to enroll. The mission of the All of Us Research Program is simple. They want to speed up health research and medical breakthroughs. The NIH is creating a research community of one million people who will share their unique health data. This will include answering survey questions and sharing electronic health records (EHR). Some participants may also be asked to provide blood or urine samples. The health data gathered from participants will be stored in a database. Approved researchers can access this data to explore how factors like environment, lifestyle, and genes, can impact health. This may help develop new medical treatments that are unique to individuals and enable a future of precision medicine for all of us. To learn more about the program and how to join, please visit www.JoinAllofUs.org.
