We seek funding for an interdisciplinary workshop to improve research on population, health, and the environment. The proposed grant will support: (1) an initial one-day round table meeting for leading scholars in key fields related to environmental change to compare approaches and findings, and to suggest promising directions for further inquiry, and (2) a main workshop including 40 participants in the summer of 2000. The participants in the initial one-day round-table meeting will serve as an Advisory Committee and provide advice on the program for the main workshop. The workshop will aim to enhance research in social, physical, biological, and medical sciences on: (a) the determinants of environmental outcomes and (b) their consequences for health. A serious understanding of environmental change and its consequences will require an interdisciplinary approach in which scholars from several different disciplines collaborate. This workshop is designed to stimulate and foster interdisciplinary exchange and collaboration on a broad range of issues related to the population, the environment, and health. To do this, it will: 1) introduce researchers to essential theoretical advances and empirical findings from multiple disciplines; 2) expose researchers to new or less well-known measurement issues and techniques; and 3) recruit leading researchers, at the junior and senior levels, in the social and health sciences into research on the determinants of environmental change and its health consequences.

我们寻求资助一个跨学科的研讨会，以提高对人口，健康和环境的研究。 拟议的赠款将支助：（1）为与环境变化有关的关键领域的主要学者举行为期一天的初步圆桌会议，以比较各种方法和研究结果，并为进一步研究提出有希望的方向，（2）在2000年夏季举办一次有40人参加的主要讲习班。 为期一天的圆桌会议的与会者将担任咨询委员会，并就主要研讨会的方案提供建议。 讲习班的目的是加强社会、物理、生物和医学方面的研究：（a）环境后果的决定因素和（B）环境后果对健康的影响。 对环境变化及其后果的认真理解将需要一种跨学科的方法，来自几个不同学科的学者合作。该讲习班的目的是促进和促进与人口、环境和健康有关的广泛问题的跨学科交流与合作。为此，它将：1）向研究人员介绍多学科的基本理论进展和实证研究结果; 2）使研究人员接触新的或不太知名的测量问题和技术; 3）招募社会和健康科学领域的初级和高级研究人员研究环境变化及其健康后果的决定因素。
