Kern County Cancer Habits Study Enrolls 4000 Participants
The American Cancer Society epidemiological study in Kern County continues with about 4,000 enrollees for a six year period. Participants answer questions on farming in youth, age at leaving, hospitalizations, diseases since 1961, residence relative to air pollution, and smoking habits. The survey began in 1959 with a million participants and aims to link living habits to cancer development.
