Generation Scotland: A family-based cohort for longitudinal biomarker discovery
Date: 23/11/2026 to 23/11/2026 Venue: Microsoft Teams webinar
Generation Scotland is a biomedical research cohort with over 40,000 participants, and is one of the largest family-based health research cohorts globally
The cohort has particular strengths in epigenetics, data linkage, data sharing practices, and maintains a highly collaborative and adaptive approach to research.
This talk will provide an update on recent recruitment enhancements, with a particular focus on non-invasive, remote biosampling and novel approaches to engagement. The build-out of trusted research environment infrastructure that is appropriate to consented research cohort data will also be covered.
