[5] In early 2020, recognizing the growing threat that the COVID-19 pandemic presented, Color mobilized its existing software, logistics expertise and lab operations to focus on mass COVID-19 testing.

The integrated process includes sign up, the self-collection kit, and results returned via text and email to patients, clinicians, and public health authorities.

LAMP relies on a different set of chemical reagents than standard PCR tests, which helps the process avoids supply chain scarcity.

[citation needed] All of Us will sequence one million or more people across the US, with the goal of accelerating health research and enabling individualized prevention, treatment, and care.

The program has a focus on recruitment from populations that have been historically underrepresented in clinical science and genomic medicine, in order to build a diverse biomedical data resource that provides a foundation for better insights into the biological, environmental, and behavioral factors that influence health.

[24] As the awardee, Color will customize software and tools to integrate data from all the genome centers, standardize reporting across the program, and ensure all results are returned in a unified way.

In collaboration with the Women’s Health Initiative and Dr. Mary-Claire King at the University of Washington, Color provided genetic sequencing for the cohort of 10,000 Fabulous Ladies Over Seventy (FLOSSIES).
