RADx® Underserved Populations (RADx-UP) was created by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to ensure that all Americans have access to COVID-19 testing, with a focus on communities most affected by the pandemic. RADx-UP represents a significant investment by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to help speed innovation in developing and implementing COVID-19 testing in underserved populations.
Our project teams work with established and new community partners. Together, they test community health interventions and collect data on disparities in infection rates, disease progression, health outcomes, access to health care, and more.
This data helps community leaders and policymakers identify effective strategies for reducing disparities in COVID-19 testing and addressing other health needs of their communities.
NIH leaders, program officers, and program scientists oversee the RADx-UP program and its funding awards to more than research teams across the United States and its territories as well as Tribal Nations.
The RADx-UP Coordination and Data Collection Center (CDCC) is the central leadership and support team assisting the NIH and these projects as they serve their communities.
The CDCC is organized into four core support teams:
1 - The COVID-19 Testing Core helps projects elevate their testing strategies.
2 - The Community Engagement Core helps projects deepen their community outreach, education, and testing participation.
3 - The Data Science and Biostatistics Core helps projects strengthen their data collection, integration, and analysis.
4 - The Administrative Core, along with the Tracking & Evaluation Team and other partners, helps the CDCC to be a center of excellence for supporting the RADx-UP consortium.
The RADx-UP CDCC is funded through an NIH emergency cooperative agreement 1U24MD016258.
