Happy National DNA Day! One year ago today, we started providing regular updates about personalized DNA results from All of Us. Back then, we were still preparing. We hadn’t yet provided health-related DNA results to any participants. Now, we are inviting about 5,000 participants each week to decide if they want their results.
Today’s update will be our last one focused specifically on health-related DNA results. We’ve come a long way in one year, and we have big plans for the years to come. While we are starting to look ahead, our first priority is to continue to provide eligible participants with their personalized DNA results if they want them.
Important! This email is an update about our progress of sharing health-related DNA results with eligible participants. It is not your personalized DNA results.
What future plans does All of Us have for health-related DNA results?
Did you know? We expect that about 97-98% of participants who receive a Hereditary Disease Risk result will get a result saying we did not find anything significant.
Over 150,000 participants are currently eligible to receive DNA results. If you are not eligible to receive DNA results, it’s not too late. Log in to your account to complete the steps you need to become eligible. Don’t know if you’re eligible or not? Take a look at our checklist to become eligible for DNA results.
Going forward, we will provide updates about health-related DNA results in our national newsletter. You can also read our previous genomics updates.
