Abstract
Objective: The All of Us Research Program aims to return value to participants by developing research capacity in communities. We describe a novel set of introductory exercises (Data Sandboxes) and specialized trainings to orient researchers to the Researcher Workbench to foster health equity research.
Materials and methods: We developed a tailored training to familiarize researchers with the All of Us Research Program: (1) orientation, (2) tailored "data treasure hunt" using the Public Data Browser, and (3) overview of the analyses tools and platform.
Results: Participants' pre- and post-knowledge of the contents and structure of the All of Us dataset scores increased significantly after training. These trainings effectively engaged researchers in exploring this rich dataset.
Conclusion: We describe ways of orienting and familiarizing a wide variety of researchers with the All of Us Research Program dataset, sparking their interest, and "jump-starting" their research.
