MOSAAIC is a Research Study for
Asian, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Communities

For too long, Asian, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander communities have been grouped as one, and the health guidance we received have not include our voices. It’s time to change that.

Hear From MOSAAIC Participants

What struck me immediately was the intention behind the study: to truly understand the diverse experience within our community. It made me feel seen. Too often, our voices are grouped together or overlooked in health research. MOSAAIC felt different—it felt personal.

Honglin S.

Chinese American Participant, SF Bay Area

Often, when we think of Asian Americans, we are all just put together, but experiences vary quite a lot. The more participation we can have, the better findings and the better the research study will be, and the more of an impact we can have for us and for future generations.
