Recently completed

This is a feasibility study to identify, understand, and delineate a process for accessing available data and information pertaining to veterans who served on active duty during the Manhattan Project (1942-1947), including locations, types of exposures (e.g. chemical, radiation, or combined), demographic and military characteristics, other types of exposures outside of the Manhattan Project, and health outcomes including cause of death. The assessment will determine whether a full epidemiologic study can be conducted as directed in PL 117-168 (PACT Act). No data will be collected or analyzed as part of this feasibility study.
