Abstract
The Lung Health Cohort (LHC) study is the first federally funded, community-based cohort study of millennials in the nation. This study aims to discover what biomarkers as well as genetic and environmental factors lead to the development of lung disease, with the goal of being able to prevent it in the future. Participants will be followed for up to 4 years. This study is sponsored by the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) and the American Lung Association (ALA). We are actively recruiting healthy participants aged 25 to 35 to be part of this important project. If you are interested in signing up, reach out to LHC_study@uic.edu.
