Description:

On July 30th, 2019, Northwestern will host the National Institutes of Health’s All of Us Journey, a traveling, hands-on exhibit that raises awareness about the All of Us Research Program. The All of Us Journey will be at Northwestern Medicine’s Streeterville Campus (227 E. Huron St., Chicago) on Tuesday July 30th, from 10am- 3pm as part of its national tour.

The All of Us Research Program 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 they live, what they do, and their family health history.

The program is open to people both healthy and sick, from all communities and patients, family members and hospital staff are invited to join. 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 learn more about different diseases and treatments and improve health for generations to come.

Come on board the bus to view the exhibit and learn how you can change the future of health.
