Verily unveiled Project Baseline, an effort to develop a dataset and broad picture of baseline population health, in 2017. The new consortium will build off Project Baseline and use the tools and technology developed through the project to improve the pace and efficiency of conducting studies and generate more accurate data to support scientific discovery.
