NOVELTY is a prospective cohort study conducted from 2016-2021, with data from 11,243 patients across 18 countries. Individuals with a diagnosis, or suspected diagnosis, of asthma and/or COPD (including 1652 patients with severe asthma) were included in the study. NOVELTY contains a rich set of socio-demographic, clinical, and anthropometric patient data, including spirometry measurements, medication utilization, basic sociodemographic information, and health services use.

This project, sponsored by an arm's length reserch contract with AstraZeneca Canada, harnesses population-based administrative health databases of British Columbia to update our esitmates of the recent trends in medication use in asthma. The emphasis of this project is on the use of short-acting beta agonists and systemic corticosteroids and how their pattern of use is evolving in patients with asthma.

This is an exciting multidiciplinary project on Precision Health in children and adult asthma. This project has spon off from our lab's involvement in a major Genome Canada grant (PI: [Dr. Stuart Turvey](https://bcchr.ca/our-research/researchers/results/Details/stuart-turvey)). We plan to develop Whole Disease Policy models for childhood and adult lung health and provide rigorous decision-theoretic lens to biomarker discovery activities that target lung health in children and adults.
