The All of Us (AoU) Research Program combines electronic health record data from partner sites in the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership common data model. Researchers must address missing units, multiple units, and incorrect labeling of units for each continuous variable measurement in AoU before using data in their analyses. Unifier standardizes multi-center unit harmonization for continuous variable measurements providing researchers with data in a research-ready format, lowering the barrier to conduct biomedical research across populations.
