Description
You are invited to join the Healthy Oregon Project (HOP) – a research study that combines genetic cancer screening, using a saliva sample, with surveys about a person’s environment, behaviors, and lifestyle to understand their risks for cancer and other diseases.
With this app you can:
- Review the study information and consent to participate
- Complete surveys about your health habits and environment to aid us in early detection research and allow us to follow your health for as long as you choose to participate
- Find out where and how to donate a saliva sample for genetic screening
- View your genetic screening results, which are provided at no cost, and will identify whether your DNA indicates a risk for certain inheritable diseases.
- Get updates about the study and health resources
We anticipate enrolling more than 100,000 people in the study. Feel free to share this app with your friends and family. Any adult living in Oregon or SW Washington may join. Initial funding for this project comes from the Cancer Early Detection Advanced Research Center (CEDAR), a part of the Oregon Health Sciences University (OHSU) Knight Cancer Institute.
