Renown Health (NV) and Desert Research Institute partner with 23andMe to launch a community-based population health study that will look at health, population, and genetic information; along with environmental data. Study participants, including Governor of Nevada Brian Sandoval, will receive genetic test results at no cost. “We will begin to understand how environmental factors can help predict who may be at risk, allow for quicker diagnoses, and encourage the development of more precise treatments,” says Joseph Grzymski, DRI Applied Innovation Center senior director and principal investigator of the study. “That understanding, combined with the information we will deliver back to study participants, are the first steps toward a future where access to your personal health data will contribute to a higher overall quality of life for all Nevadans.”
