Starting with the original Nurses’ Health Study in 1976, the studies are now in their third generation with Nurses’ Health Study 3 (still enrolling male and female nurses) and count >275,000 participants. Forty-seven years since the beginning, over 200,000 participants continue to contribute data, biospecimens, and participate in ancillary studies.
