Meet Ray.
Ray lives on a farm.
He loves playing kick-ball with his grandkids,
but lately he's gotten a little slower,
and been visiting the doctor a lot more often.
This is Kim.
Kim lives in the city.
She loves to exercise, cook healthy meals,
and can't remember the last time she called in sick.
They're both people.
But not all people are the same.
And yet, when we visit the doctor,
our treatments don't look that different.
Why is that?
Because we just don't have
enough information to do it better.
Until now.
Enter: All of Us,
the research program based on Precision Medicine.
Precision Medicine is a revolutionary new approach
to treating and preventing disease
that's personalized, instead of one-size-fits-all.
By gathering health data from one million people
like Ray, and Kim, and Trevor, and Samir,
our country's best researchers will be able to develop
treatments that are as unique and complex as we are.
With this new information,
doctors will have a better understanding of disease
so they can innovate the next
great breakthroughs in medicine.
Once enough people join,
suddenly everything changes.
Information becomes clear,
patterns emerge,
and simple data transforms
into life-saving knowledge.
This means that Ray and Kim's children,
and their children's children
can live longer, healthier lives.
By becoming one of the first
one million people to volunteer,
you can help reshape the entire future of healthcare
for generations to come.
If we can figure out how to fly, put a man on the moon,
and connect the entire world,
surely we should be able to improve
the future of healthcare, not just for Ray and Kim
or even you, but for all of us.
