Happy 50th Anniversary, National Health Interview Survey

The National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), which is part of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, celebrated the 50th Anniversary of the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) in 2007; the NHIS has been fielded continuously since 1957.  To mark the occasion, NCHS held a one-day conference on June 25, 2007 at its site in Hyattsville, Maryland (in Metropolitan Washington, D.C.).  See the full program of the conference.
