The National Institutes of Health (NIH) invites Tribal Leaders to participate in an upcoming All of Us Research Program Tribal Consultation for two new program initiatives. The All of Us Research Program is soliciting input to establish robust protections, oversight mechanisms, and collaborative approaches to implementing two new initiatives. This engagement aims to ensure that the inclusion of biospecimens from self-identified American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) participants in Partnered Research Studies and the expansion of the Controlled Tier Plus (CT+) data access model rigorously uphold Tribal sovereignty, adhere to ethical standards, and yield meaningful community benefits.
