On July 22-23, 2010, the ninth Add Health Users Conference took place in Bethesda, Maryland on the campus of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Over 100 researchers who are working with Add Health data assembled to share research goals, experiences and results. The conference agenda included over 50 presentations by investigators who are using Add Health data to conduct research in substantive areas spanning the social, behavioral and biological sciences. In addition, methodology sessions provided in-depth information on the Add Health study design and the unique biomarker, genetic, geographic and relationship data that enhance this rich data set.
