About Us
The Indiana Health Study is a new research study involving Indiana communities. The Indiana Health Study will make it possible for researchers to study the population of Indiana in order to learn more about the causes of common diseases such as heart disease, cancer and diabetes. Their findings will lead to new drugs and diagnostics that allow doctors to better manage chronic diseases, and will make Indiana a healthier place. The Indiana Health Study is intended to go on for many years and involve thousands of people from Indiana communities. It is a local initiative that will have national impact. The Indiana Health Study is sponsored by the Fairbanks Institute for Healthy Communities.
