The cohort study on disease prevention and health promotion in the northeastern region of Taiwan is a trial dedicated to large-scale generational research in northeastern Taiwan beginning in the August of 2013. The program aims to develop a comprehensive and integrated approach to disease prevention and community health. The researcher's cohort organizes healthcare outreaches for participants over the age of 20 residing in 64 administrative areas in Keelung city and new Taipei city. The researcher's sessions include a comprehensive health examination, health-related questionnaires, and disease awareness seminars.
Biological samples, questionnaire information, and medical data obtained from researcher's participants are stored in researcher's core laboratory. Depersonalized data and samples are shared with partnering trials approved by the Chang Gung Memorial Hospital Institutional review board. The investigators are currently partnered with 18 clinical trials spanning across multiple disciplines such as urology, hepatology, metabolism, physical therapy, and psychology.
