We're moving! ?????? It’s the beginning of a new era as Pelotonia HQ moves to a new home. The new office is located in the Energy Advancement and Innovation Center (EAIC) within the Carmenton district of The Ohio State University campus and next to the Pelotonia Research Center! With this move, Pelotonia HQ will be much closer to where the groundbreaking research funded by the incredible Pelotonia community is happening. Starting tomorrow (October 28), Pelotonia staff will be working remotely with a move-in date by mid-November. There is still some work to be done as we get settled into the new space at the EAIC, but we are excited to welcome the community in to see the new Pelotonia HQ in the new year! #EndingCancer
