National Institutes of Health (NIH) All of Us Research Workbench

Through an agreement with the NIH, researchers at the University of Notre Dame are able to gain access to one of the largest, and most diverse health databases ever. All of Us has invited more than one million people across the U.S. to participate. Already more than 600,000 participants, the database aims to engage people who have been left out of medical research in the past, combining both biological factors and social determinants on a large scale, and making the information easily accessible to any researcher with a secure internet connection. This is not just a snapshot of their health but follows the participants as they move, age, and grow.
