About The INCLUDE Project and the INCLUDE DCC

In 2018, the NIH launched the INCLUDE (INvestigation of Co-occurring conditions across the Lifespan to Understand Down syndromE) Project to study the critical health and quality-of-life needs of people with Down syndrome and their families. Increased research efforts focused on Down syndrome and its co-occurring conditions led to the creation of the INCLUDE Data Coordinating Center (DCC) to accelerate research that benefits individuals with Down syndrome by facilitating access and analysis of data from cohort studies of people with DS.
