VCU Wright Center joins national project to advance health research for all
The National Institutes of Health awarded the Wright Center a grant to support the center in joining a national health research project. The largest-of-its-kind database aims to enroll 1 million or more people from across the U.S. in order to advance health research for all.
“We’re proud to contribute to this historic project,” said F. Gerard Moeller, M.D., director of the C. Kenneth and Dianne Wright Center for Clinical and Translational Research and the VCU lead for All of Us. “As communities in Virginia work to combat the health disparities heightened by COVID-19, diverse representation in research has never felt more critical. All of Us will help find answers to some of our foundational health challenges.”
