Abstract This session will provide an overview of the All of Us Research Program (All of Us) dataset, discuss a mechanism to build the capacity of research institutions using the All of Us dataset, and outline the career benefits researchers experienced from using the dataset. All of Us is building a national health dataset to accelerate medical breakthroughs. It is used by cancer researchers to advance health research and career development. This dataset is large and diverse, both in the data types available as well as the demographics of participants: as of April 2023, health data from 413, 450+ participants is available to researchers, from a variety of distinct data types, including survey responses, physical measurements, electronic health records, whole genome sequencing, wearable data, and genotyping arrays, with 75% of participants self-identifying as underrepresented in biomedical research and about 45% of participants self-identifying as racial and ethnic minorities. Researchers already leverage this dataset, with All of Us data used in more than 210 publications across peer-reviewed journals. In addition, this dataset is useful for cancer researchers - All of Us EHR data indicates over 60, 700 participants are diagnosed with at least one type of cancer, and more than 10% of research projects underway (725/6, 945 as of September 2023) using the All of Us dataset are cancer-related, making it the top condition studied by researchers. To help build capacity at research institutions, All of Us collaborated with the NCI Center to Reduce Cancer Health Disparities (CRCHD) Partnerships to Advance Cancer Health Equity (PACHE) to develop a Notice of Special Interest (NOSI) titled Administrative Supplements to Support "All of Us" and Health Disparities-Related Pilot Research Projects at NCI CRCHD-Funded PACHE Partnerships. The focus of this NOSI was on P20 and U54 awards associated with research projects led by PACHE researchers interested in exploring the connections between social determinants of health outcomes and populations experiencing cancer health disparities. NIH awarded investigators at the following institutions: City College of New York, University of California, Irvine, and Temple University. Principal investigators of these awards will provide an overview of their work, describe how they analyze the All of Us dataset, and discuss how their use of the dataset has helped advance their career as cancer researchers: Karen Hubbard (City College of New York) Project Title: Relative and Intersectional Analysis of social determinants of Lung Cancer Risk among Black and Hispanic All of Us respondents Hannah Lui Park (University of California, Irvine) Project Title: Improving breast cancer risk assessment and prevention in Asian American women Lin Zhu (Temple University) Project Title: Elucidating the Roles of Metabolic Syndrome and Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease among Asian American Patients with Chronic Hepatitis B Citation Format: Karriem S.
