News from North Lake County Public Library POLSON — On Feb.9, at 1 p.m. we invite all community members to join us for the second of two short interactive virtual presentations to learn more about how the “All of Us Research Program” may help change the future of health. This session will focus on COVID topics. At the moment, health care is often one-size-fits all, but imagine a future where your healthcare is tailored to you. We want to make that future possible by creating a resource that allows researchers to conduct thousands of studies on health and disease. You do not have to pre-register for this session. Just join us via zoom: https://zoom.us/j/95701506699?pwd...
