WSU Health Sciences Welcomes All of Us Research

 

WSU Health Sciences Spokane is partnering with 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.

 

All of Us is an unprecedented effort to gather genetic, biological, environmental, health and lifestyle data from one million or more volunteer participants living in the United States. The program's ultimate goal is to accelerate research and improve health.

 

All of Us aims to reflect the rich diversity across the country, to ensure that each community is

included in studies that lead to improved health for future generations. Participants will be

able to access their own health information, summary data about the entire participant

community and information about studies and findings that come from All of Us.

 

Anyone in the Spokane community can visit, participate and/or volunteer. How do you become a participant or learn more? 

 

The traveling exhibit will be on the WSU Health Sciences campus from July 23- 26, 10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. daily. 

Location:  WSU Health Sciences Spokane Campus,  412 E Spokane Falls Blvd., Spokane, WA 99202, at the corner of Spokane Falls Blvd. and Front Avenue.  (see attached map)
