First Annual Research Rally Sept. 16
by Center for Asbestos Related Disease
September 14, 2010
Research Translates to Community is the premise of the first annual "RESEARCH RALLY" to be held on Thursday, September 6th at the Memorial Center in Libby. It will be from 4:00pm to 6:30pm.
Libby Center for Asbestos Related Disease (CARD), in collaboration with ATSDR and Mount Sinai School of Medicine, will be hosting this fun and educational event which will provide an opportunity for community members to visit and ask questions of researchers regarding the multiple research projects that are taking place at CARD and within the Libby community.
The RESEARCH RALLY is a fun way to engage community members and researchers in a fun and educational event. "CARD Research is a Community Project" and we hope all community members recognize the important role each person plays in supporting asbestos health research activities.
Research is a valuable and exciting thing happening at CARD today. This community-wide, family friendly event will encourage community members to interact with the research teams, encouraging understanding projects and develop relationships with the researchers to make research successful. Each of our Research Partners will be represented at the Rally and will be presenting their research from their own project booth, as well as providing 15-minute presentations regarding their specific projects.
CARD would like to share with the community at large, this opportunity to engage in asbestos research learning activities. This will be an exciting, thought provoking, fun-filled event planned for all ages. There will be games and prizes, fun interactive learning booths, and opportunities to speak with present researchers one-on-one, not to mention free popcorn, balloons, hot dogs, snow cones & cotton candy.
