Outline of Final Research Achievements

Multi-purpose panel survey in community and workplace were followed to obtain panel data to reveal the mechanism linking social disparity to health disparity, and to seek for potential remedies to close the gap. The community panel had the second wave survey with 70% follow-up two years after the first wave that included 4342 participants. The workplace panel conducted its 3rd wave survey that reached about 10000 working adults in the survey, of which subsample also joined genomic examination for polymorphism related to psychological stress.Second wave of spousal/children survey was conducted in the year of 2013, capturing about 70% of those who participated in 2011 survey wave.
