I will discuss how new technologies and statistical methodologies can help enhance our ability to perform reproducible research. I will demonstrate how these could be used in a real world setting by examining questions, primarily of an epidemiological nature, using data from the NHANES surveys. I will describe one version of an Environment Wide Association Study (EnWAS) and show how this methodology can potentially be employed to interrogate large complex data resources.
