Topic: U.S. Health and Retirement Study (HRS)
- The HRS is a biennial panel dataset of older Americans (ages 50+) in households, now with up to 13 waves of coverage through 2016, with nearly 20,000 respondents in each wave within about 12,000 households
- It is a very broad survey, with questions that ask about many topics in economics, sociology, psychology; and it also includes biomarkers like blood pressure and partial DNA sequencing
