Core--Research Translation

研究翻译核心旨在开发和提供有效的机制，通过该机制，本文提出的研究结果以及项目外的相关研究可供项目的利益相关者使用。以罗得岛为中心，通过选择基于州的方法来定义利益相关者。传达项目成果的机制包括技术信息交流和技术转让。将与关键的国家机构-Rl部门协调。环境管理部（环保局）、研究开发部环境风险评估卫生办公室，由一个项目资助，布朗为基础的国家机构联络（SAL）。 SAL将协调布朗和州机构之间以及州机构之间就当前问题进行的沟通。核心领导人、共同领导人和SAL将使用先进的社会科学工具，确定关于Rl复杂污染场地的健康影响和管理方案的有效沟通。利益攸关方包括卫生专业人员（通过有针对性的继续医学教育课程和大型巡回培训接触）以及开发人员、法律的专业人员和环境专业人员。“外联核心”单独介绍了针对一般公众的努力。该项目的研究人员将担任一些通信的主要专家，但也将担任 作为各自领域的信息守门人-确定项目外部所需的专家和信息来源。SAL将确定利益相关者在哪些方面有直接的信息需求，项目领导人将帮助制定应对措施。与此同时，除了传统的出版和研讨会途径来传播其研究成果外，SAL还将协助项目负责人组织有针对性的科学会议，以交流先进的研究成果。还将有一个资助的技术转让机制，建立与布朗的技术合作伙伴计划。

The Research Translation Core aims to develop and provide efficient mechanisms by which the results of the proposed research here, and relevant research outside of the project, become available to the project's stakeholders. The stakeholders are defined by the choice of a state-based approach centering on Rhode Island. The mechanisms for conveying results out from the project include both technical information communication as well as technology transfer. There will be coordination with key state agencies- the Rl Dept. of Environmental Management (Environmental Protection Bureau) and Rl Dept. of Health Office of Environmental Risk Assessment, fostered by a project-funded, Brown-based state agencies liaison (SAL). The SAL will coordinate communications on current issues between Brown and the state agencies, and between the state agencies themselves. The core Leader, Co-Leaders and SAL will use advanced social science tools to define effective communications concerning the health implications and management options for complexly contaminated sites in Rl. Stakeholders include health professionals (to be reached by targeted continuing medical education courses and grand rounds), as well as developers, legal professionals and environmental professionals. The Outreach Core separately describes efforts aimed at the general public. The project's researchers will serve as principal experts for some communications, but will also serve as information gatekeepers for their areas- identifying as needed experts and sources of information external to the project. The SAL will identify where the stakeholders have immediate information needs and the project leaders will help formulate a response. Meanwhile, in addition to traditional publication and seminar routes for dissemination of their research results, the project leaders will be assisted by the SAL in organizing targeted scientific conferences allowing interchange of advanced research. There will also be a funded technology transfer mechanism, set up in conjunction with Brown's technology partnership program.
