Read our Obesity research guide →This is a long-term research study that follows two groups of people: those living with obesity and related conditions like heart disease or diabetes, and healthy adults without obesity. Researchers will collect information about your nutrition, diet, and health over time, then use artificial intelligence to look for patterns that could help us better understand and treat obesity.
Obesity affects millions of people and often comes with serious health problems, but we still don't fully understand all the nutrition and lifestyle factors that contribute to it. This study aims to use advanced technology to uncover new insights that could lead to better treatments and prevention strategies.

If you join, you'll be part of a study that lasts several years. You'll visit the research center to provide information about your diet and health, and researchers will collect data about your nutrition and medical history. The study uses apps and digital tools, so you'll need to be comfortable with smartphone technology. You'll come back for follow-up visits each year so the research team can track how your health and nutrition patterns change over time.
