The CPMC is enrolling individuals in a research study to investigate the impact of personalized medicine on health outcomes. Over the next several years, study participants will receive personalized genetic results for their risks of complex diseases such as cancer, heart disease and diabetes. Participants will be asked to complete follow-up questionnaires to inform the medical and scientific community about the utility of using genome information in medical care.
