NIH’s All of Us Journey Comes to the Gaston All American Fair

  • When: Sunday, June 17, 2018,  1:00 pm -  9:00 pm
  • Location: Eastridge Mall 246 N New Hope Rd Gastonia, NC 28054.
  • Cost: Free.

This week, the Gaston All American Fair will host the National Institutes of Health’s All of Us Journey, a traveling, hands-on exhibit to raise awareness about the All of Us Research Program. All of Us aims to speed up health research and medical breakthroughs. To do so, All of Us is asking 1 million volunteers to share different types of health and lifestyle information – information like where you live, what you do, and your family health history.

Gastonia is one stop on the All of Us Journey’s national tour. The Gaston All American Fair invites you to attend this event to learn more about the All of Us Research Program and how it could enable research to more precisely prevent and treat a variety of health conditions.

WHAT
The Gaston All American Fair invites the Gastonia community to visit the All of Us Journey and learn how you can help change the future of health.

WHEN
Saturday, June 16th
1 p.m. - 9 p.m.
Sunday, June 17th
1 p.m. - 8 p.m.
Tuesday, June 19th
5 p.m. - 10 p.m.

WHERE
Eastridge Mall
246 N New Hope Rd
Gastonia NC 28054

WHY
Unlike a single research study focused on a specific disease or community, the All of Us Research Program will create a research resource to inform thousands of studies, covering a wide range of health conditions. This information could help researchers better understand health differences and improve health for generations to come.

PRICE
Free
