Let’s Get Healthy! offers free events in which participants can visit exhibits on diet and exercise; take computer surveys on cancer risk, diet, and sleep; get measurements of their body composition; take their blood pressure; have blood samples measured for chemical analysis; and have saliva examples taken for genetic analysis. In addition to learning about their own health, attendees can contribute their data to an anonymous database for public health research.
On Monday, May 9th, Let’s Get Healthy! will be presenting our exhibit at the Science Education Partnership Award (SEPA) Program’s annual conference. We are looking for volunteers from 3:45pm – 7:00pm to help us run the education and research stations described above. On-site training is provided. Volunteers may sign up online at:
