Scientific Questions Being Studied
What behavioral, environmental, and biological factors contribute to the racial and ethnic minority disparities in lung cancer incidence between Asian, Black, and Hispanic-Latino (A/B/H-L) compared with non-Hispanic White populations?
How do these factors differ for primary and secondary lung cancer across these groups?
Project Purpose(s)
- Educational
Scientific Approaches
We plan to utilize the All of Us research database, the All of Us Workbench to complete data analysis, a case-control study design, and basic statistical tools, such as odds ratios and machine learning in Python.
Anticipated Findings
We hypothesize that, in addition to smoking, other biological, environmental, and behavioral risk factors may play an important role in lung cancer development, disease progression, and prognoses. We hypothesize that such etiology will differ across race/ethnicity. We plan on performing a case-control and case-case study to uncover epidemiological trends in lung cancer, and we anticipate finding other important markers in the pathophysiology of lung cancer.

Duplicate of V7 Demo for hypertension prevalence
Scientific Questions Being Studied
This workspace is meant to be a tutorial on the Dataset Builder Tool and Jupyter Notebooks by attempting to re-create Figure 4 and part of Table 1 of the Chandler et al. (2021) published paper "Hypertension prevalence in the All of Us Research Program among groups traditionally underrepresented in medical research" (https://rdcu.be/dkSWC). This workspace is for demonstration and educational purposes only.
