All of Us Research Program

All of Us frontWhat is the All of Us Research Program?

At the moment, health care is often one-size-fits-all. But imagine a future where your health treatments are tailored to you. This is called precision medicine. And we can make that future possible. The mission of All of Us is simple. We want to speed up health research. To do this, we’re asking one million people to share their unique health data. This information is added to a database. Researchers can then access this data to conduct thousands of studies on health and disease.

What is Henry Ford's role in the All of Us Research Program?

Henry Ford Health is a partner of the All of Us Research Program from the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
