DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant) This 5-year program is designed to train predoctoral (Ph.D.) and postdoctoral students in three distinct but interrelated areas: Environmental Biostatistics (BIOS), Environmental Epidemiology (EPID), and Environmental Exposure Assessment (ENVR). The BIOS goal is to train biostatisticians to conduct state-of the-art biostatistical research relevant to important environmental health problems and to provide highlevel statistical consulting support for other researchers in the environmental health field. The EPID goal is to train epidemiologists to investigate the influence of environmental exposures on human health, with the capability of integrating approaches from molecular biology, biostatistics, and environmental sciences. The ENVR goal is to train environmental scientists to conduct research on biological and statistical methods for assessing environmental exposures as they relate to human health effects. The typical predoctoral trainee will be a college graduate or Masters-level graduate with an excellent academic record appropriate for one of the three training areas, and the typical postdoctoral trainee will have highly relevant doctoral training. Funding is requested for the support of 33 pre-doctoral trainees for each of 5 years (15 BIOS, 10 EPID, 8 ENVR) and for 6 postdoctoral trainees (2 in each training area, one to start in year 1 and one to start in year 3). The Departments of Biostatistics, Epidemiology, and Environmental Sciences and Engineering, the three largest and most recognized departments in the UNC School of Public Health, have available all the personnel and facilities sufficient to provide the most comprehensive pre-doctoral and postdoctoral training. The NIEHS and EPA researchers at Research Triangle Park, NC will continue to be closely involved in this training program.

描述（由申请人提供） 这个为期5年的计划旨在培养博士前（博士）和 博士后学生在三个不同但相互关联的领域： 环境生物统计学（BIOS），环境流行病学（EPID）， 环境暴露评估（ENVR）。BIOS的目标是训练 生物统计学家进行最先进的生物统计学研究 与重要的环境卫生问题有关，并提供高水平的 为其他研究人员提供统计咨询支持， 环境卫生领域。EPID的目标是培训流行病学家 为了调查环境暴露对人类健康的影响， 有了整合分子生物学方法的能力， 生物统计学和环境科学。ENVR的目标是训练 环境科学家对生物和 评估环境照射的统计方法 对人类健康的影响。典型的博士前实习生将是 大学毕业或硕士毕业，具有优秀的学术 适合三个培训领域之一的记录，以及 博士后培训生将有高度相关的博士培训。 申请资助33名博士前学员， 每5年（15 BIOS，10 EPID，8 ENVR）和6博士后 受训人员（每个培训领域2名，一名从第一年开始，一名从 从第三年开始）。生物统计学系、流行病学系和 环境科学和工程，三个最大和最 公共卫生学院的认可部门，有 提供所有的人员和设施，足以提供 最全面的博士前和博士后培训。NIEHS 和环保署的研究人员在研究三角公园，数控将继续 密切参与此次培训活动。
