The All of Us Evenings with Genetics Research Program

The All of Us Evenings with Genetics (All of Us EwG) Research Program, funded in part by the National Institute of Health's All of Us Research Program, engages researchers to utilize the All of Us Researcher Workbench to advance precision medicine. The All of Us EwG program has two core aims: (1) address barriers to research productivity for minorities, disadvantaged, and persons with disabilities aspiring to enter STEM fields; and (2) promote the use of the All of Us Researcher Workbench to develop research focused on health equity. To achieve these goals, the program implements three key activities: (1) Campus Seminars: hosted at minority-serving institutions and smaller universities to connect faculty with the All of Us Research Program to showcase ongoing research; (2) Biomedical Researchers Faculty Summit: a multi-day conference for early career researchers to foster collaboration and train participants in using the All of Us database; and (3) Biomedical Researcher Scholars Program: A yearlong initiative supporting the research teams formed at the summit in implementing the research projects developed using the All of Us data. Overall, the All of Us EwG program offers data science training, mentorship, and professional development; this report outlines its structure, outcomes, and lessons learned.
