The All of Us Engagement Core at Vanderbilt University Medical Center is helping make human research more equitable, inclusive and stronger to accelerate the prevention and treatment of illness through genomic and precision medicine.

Vanderbilt University Medical Center has received a federal grant to incorporate social drivers of health into adult primary care with the aim of improving outcomes for patients with multiple chronic conditions.

An artificial intelligence tool developed at Vanderbilt accurately identified pediatric patients at high risk for blood clots in a clinical trial, with no difference in outcomes compared to a control group.

Biostatisticians at VUMC have played a pivotal role in the redesign of clinical trials that rigorously and rapidly determine the effectiveness of life-saving treatments for acutely ill patients.

Vanderbilt researchers report that when people who are having their brains scanned by fMRI perform a task, like wiggling their fingers, certain signals increase in white matter throughout the brain, which has long been thought to play a lesser role the more the brain's more energetic gray matter.

A Vanderbilt expert in biomedical ethics says the public’s mistrust of medical science, including vaccination, is being driven in part by a top-down research enterprise that does not give human subjects a voice in the studies that affect them.
