The INSPIRE Study is now part of something bigger—INSPIRE has joined the national ECHO children’s study.

What is ECHO?

The Environmental Influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) is a research program created by the National Institutes of Health to understand and improve the health of children for generations to come.¹

INSPIRE is 1 of 12 studies at 10 locations throughout the U.S. (see map below) that will conduct research in childhood respiratory health as part of ECHO-CREW (Children’s Respiratory Research Workgroup). The ECHO-CREW group includes more than 10,000 children across the United States.
