"Does the way that information is presented to people affect how they learn about genetics and if they want to be in research studies?"

We are recruiting 216 people at events in the community to look at different types of educational materials about genomics. We will survey them before and after to see if and how their knowledge and willingness to participate in research was affected. Then, we will ask 30 of those people to participate in a 45-60 minute interview over Zoom. This will help us to gather more information about their preferences and attitudes toward genomic research. We will be recruiting from a diverse group of people and offering materials in both English and Spanish. The purpose of this is to improve health literacy and willingness of participate in genomic research in order to improve health equity.

To do this, we will evaluate different combinations of vital signs, symptoms, results from tests for infections that cause respiratory illness, and measurement of the body's immune response to see which ones best predict the presence of infection that requires antibiotic treatment.
