CQS Summer Institute- Introduction to the All of Us Research Program

1 credits · Graduate School

The large-scale All of Us initiative collects data from over one million participants in the United States. This program gathers diverse data types, such as survey data, electronic health records, physical measurements, mobile health data (Fitbit), whole genome sequences, and array data. As a freely accessible resource, it plays a crucial role in improving health and advancing precision medicine. Researchers can access and analyze All of Us data via the Researcher Workbench, a secure Google cloud-based platform. This short course will (1) provide an overview of the Researcher Workbench and its built-in tools, (2) cover the process of identifying and extracting variables, and (3) feature case studies that illustrate using the Workbench to analyze various data types.
