Excited to see our wearables data in @AllofUsResearch published in @NatureMedicine
Grateful to the #participants,
#coauthors and everyone who has helped build & support this amazing program and advance precision medicine
#TeamScience
One of the largest wearables datasets for biomedical research is available through NIH's All of Us Research Program. 59,000+ participants. 14 years. 39M step observations. Linked to EHR, genomics, and surveys. A new real-world data resource to understand activity, sleep, and chronic disease.
