This Pan-American Advanced Studies Institutes (PASI) award, jointly supported by the NSF and the Department of Energy (DOE), will take place in July 1-10, 2013 at the School of Public Health at University of São Paulo (USP), Brazil. The principal investigator, Dr. Joan Rose (Michigan State University) will be joined on the organizing committee by scientists from the U.S., Brazil, Mexico, Panama, and Venezuela. This PASI will engage 25 post-doctoral scientists, advanced graduate students and junior scientists and engineers from a diverse set of fields including environmental engineering, microbiology, environmental science, epidemiology, environmental health, veterinary medicine, and emergency preparedness. Participants will gain hands-on experience with mathematical software and statistical approaches for addressing water pollution and control. Additionally, the participants will attend lectures from top scientists in the field of quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA), engage in specific exercises, and become familiar with probabilistic methodology.This PASI will build upon the World Health Organization's recent publication that recommended that QMRA be used to implement the water safety plans by engaging more scientists and engineers from across the globe to gain experience with QMRA. In addition, countries such as Brazil, Chile and Mexico are in a position to construct their water service systems implementing the new technologies that will be discussed and assessed in the institute. Global access to program materials will be created via a website and contributions to the QMRA wiki. Additionally, an environmental science and engineering career program will be developed to discuss post-doctoral scientists' pathways for engaging in water research, particularly in Central and South America.

这个泛美高级研究所（PASI）奖，由美国国家科学基金会和能源部（DOE）联合支持，将于2013年7月1日至10日在圣保罗大学（USP）公共卫生学院举行，巴西。 主要研究者琼·罗斯博士（密歇根州立大学）将与来自美国的科学家一起参加组委会，巴西，墨西哥，巴拿马和委内瑞拉。 该PASI将吸引来自不同领域的25名博士后科学家，高级研究生和初级科学家和工程师，包括环境工程，微生物学，环境科学，流行病学，环境卫生，兽医和应急准备。 参与者将获得解决水污染和控制的数学软件和统计方法的实践经验。 此外，参加者还将参加定量微生物风险评估（QMRA）领域顶尖科学家的讲座，并进行具体的练习，熟悉概率方法。本次PASI将以世界卫生组织最近出版的推荐QMRA用于实施水安全计划的出版物为基础，邀请来自地球仪的更多科学家和工程师参与，以获得QMRA的经验。 此外，巴西、智利和墨西哥等国有能力建设采用新技术的供水系统，研究所将对这些新技术进行讨论和评估。 全球访问计划材料将通过网站和贡献QMRA维基创建。 此外，还将制定一个环境科学和工程职业计划，以讨论博士后科学家从事水研究的途径，特别是在中美洲和南美洲。
