As registered users of the Workbench with an active workspace on the platform, Researcher Ambassadors share first-hand knowledge of this unprecedented collection of diverse data. Hear from four of the current ambassadors as they explore how access to the All of Us dataset can empower researchers and, ultimately, further health equity.
