| The Driven to Discover (D2D) research facility at the Minnesota State Fair leverages the annual gathering of approximately two million fairgoers to engage Minnesota residents in research in a unique way to support rapid participant recruitment and data collection for investigators. The presentation describes how the D2D team has experienced sometimes hilarious ups and downs in building this innovative research infrastructure partnership between the University of Minnesota and the Minnesota State Fair. Current work to expand the D2D model in other states and in rural areas of Minnesota will be shared.
