A media article was published about unauthorized access to NIH-supported data by individuals who have misused the data to promote an unethical agenda. The ABCD Study is named. No personally identifiable information was compromised, and there has been no data breach. The misuses and misrepresentation of the data are fundamentally inconsistent with the study’s goals, methods, and values. ABCD is designed to advance rigorous and ethical research and opposes discriminatory, stigmatizing, or harmful uses of the data. We have reached out to all ABCD participants and invited them to contact us directly with any questions or concerns.
