Are you part of "All of Us"?🧑🏿🤝🧑🏻🧑🏼🤝🧑🏻 Six years ago, the National Institutes of Health launched a large precision medicine study called “All of Us.” The aim was to gather data from over 1 million people to uncover new genetic information. 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄❓ 1. The project aims to address the diversity issue in genomic data (predominantly European) and improve understanding of disease biology. 2. It applies a “data passport” model to provide easy access to data to researchers. 3. It is looking for continued support and funding to reach the goal of sequencing 1 million genomes by 2026. 𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗱𝗶𝗱 𝗶𝘁 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝘁𝗼⚙️ - It has released nearly 250,000 whole genome sequences recently, half of which are from non-European ancestries. - The “data passport” model has attracted nearly 7,000 scientists from diverse institutions. - The data have led to the development of more accurate risk scores for common diseases across different ethnic backgrounds. 👉🏻 𝗪𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗱, 𝘀𝗽𝗶𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗲𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁?

Thank you Lionel! The inclusion of non-European ancestries is crucial for equitable health insights. The "data passport" model seems promising for fostering collaborative research. It's encouraging to see such progress, and I'm intrigued by the potential findings from this vast pool of data.

My humble opinion is that this research could shed light on not only #diseases #biology but also on #cultural culinary differences and perhaps other attributes. Thanks for sharing Lionel Guerraz
