Progress towards the 100K study is continuing. As you can imagine, carrying out a successful 100,000 person study requires a lot of up-front preparation, including running smaller advance pilot studies to test out various elements of the full-scale study. For the next two years, the DGC will be engaged in these pilot studies, some of which will be open to external participants, and some of which will leverage already existing groups of subjects.
There will also be opportunities to enroll in the 100,000 Person Study after it launches, currently estimated to be in 2018.
