The HCHS/SOL Is Still Going On

The Hispanic Community Health Study or Study of Latinos (HCHS/SOL)'s participants continue with follow-up interviews in Chicago as well as in San Diego, CA; Miami, FL; and Bronx, NY. The study is aimed to learn more about Hispanic/Latino health in the U.S.


A short video has been posted in this blog to watch Dr. Elmer Huerta, MD where he invites the HCHS/SOL participants to stay in touch with investigators. If you are a Chicago participant, you can contact investigators at: 1-800-749-4765 and let them know your questions or changes in your address or phone number.
