The Future of Wisconsin’s Health Begins with You.
The University of Wisconsin-Madison is part of a nationwide effort to gather health data from more than 1 million people to help accelerate innovation in health care research.
The mission of All of Us is simple: to speed up health research and medical breakthroughs. In addition, the program is focused on precision medicine, seeking to make health care more personalized with considerations for an individual’s environment, lifestyle and family health history. Researchers will be able to use these data to conduct thousands of studies, which may help them discover and match the right treatment to the right person at the right time.
Led by Dorothy Farrar-Edwards, director, UW-Madison Collaborative Center for Health Equity (CCHE) and Beth Burnside, deputy executive director, UW-Madison Institute for Clinical and Translational Research (ICTR), the aim in Wisconsin is to enroll participants who reflect the diversity of the nation, shedding light on health differences based on age, gender, ethnicity and socioeconomics.
The program seeks anyone, 18 years of age or older, of any race, ethnicity and sexual orientation, to share their health data and samples of blood and urine to build the largest health database of its kind. Participants receive $25 upon completion.
