Researchers looked at All of Us Research Program data to learn more about how type 2 diabetes affects a person's health over time. They used DNA data to look for clues about the complexity of diabetes. Researchers found 8 subgroups of type 2 diabetes, each with its own genetic patterns. These patterns may help us understand how type 2 diabetes develops, and what health impacts a person might develop. This study was thanks to the health data from All of Us, highlighting the real impacts your data can make to research.

The skin you’re in may hold clues to your health. This comes from a new study using All of Us Research data to look at the link between a common skin condition and a range of neurological disorders. The study found that people with rosacea were more likely to have certain conditions that affect the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. These included Alzheimer’s disease, cluster headaches, dementia, and migraines. This study could pave the way for further research on the link between skin disorders and other conditions.
