Abstract

Abstract In healthcare one size does not fit all. If one was ill, wouldn’t it be great for them to receive medicines made precisely for them? It is the aim of the All of Us campaign to do just that. Overtime, All of Us hopes to collect one million DNA samples and other valuable health information from a diverse group of people in the United States by about 2024. Studying these samples will reveal to researchers likenesses and differences across the samples to improve health by creating precise personal remedies and treatments. This column introduces the All of Us campaign, illustrates the research efforts using the All of Us data and closes with where one can contribute to this monumental effort.

我们所有人：改善健康的国家努力

摘要在医疗保健领域，一种尺寸并不适合所有人。如果一个人生病了，他们能得到专门为他们制作的药物不是很好吗？我们所有人运动的目的就是要做到这一点。随着时间的推移，All of Us希望在2024年左右从美国不同人群中收集100万份DNA样本和其他有价值的健康信息。研究这些样本将向研究人员揭示样本之间的相似性和差异，通过创造精确的个人疗法和治疗方法来改善健康。本专栏介绍了“我们所有人”运动，说明了使用“我们所有的人”数据进行的研究工作，并结束了人们可以为这一巨大努力做出贡献的地方。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Consumer Health on the Internet is the only professional peer-reviewed journal devoted to locating consumer health information via the Internet. In this journal librarians and health information providers describe programs and services aimed at helping patients and the general public find the health information they need. From the Editor: "Studies have shown that health information is one of the major reasons that people worldwide access the Internet. As the amount of health information on the Web increases exponentially, it becomes critical that librarians-including public and medical librarians-be knowledgeable about what is available online and be able to direct users to reliable, accurate, quality information."
