ARI in the All of Us Spotlight:  Studying the genes behind autoimmune disease

Autoimmune Registry (ARI) is spearheading the use of All of Us platform to incorporate genome data into our data analysis.  Information on disease prevalence, coupled with lab test results, patient-reported symptoms, and genomic data will let us develop statistical models to predict autoimmune diseases and reduce the time to diagnosis. 

All of Us is a Research Hub established by the National Institute of Health (NIH).  It includes electronic health and genetic information from volunteer participants in order to advance medical research and precision health. ARI can use data collected by All of Us to answer your questions - and help doctors better understand your needs.

If you have a question about autoimmune disease, just contact us here and we’ll use the All of Us data to answer it and include the answer in our next newsletter!

If you would like to join our efforts and provide information on your autoimmune condition, please join our registry or share it with a friend who has an autoimmune condition.  Donations are also greatly appreciated.  To Participate in the All of Us program and share your health records and/or genetic information with the NIH, please sign up here.
