DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal is for the competitive renewal of our ARCH program at Florida International University (an MSI). Our partner (RIU) institution is the University of Miami which hosts an NIEHS MFBS Center and an NIEHS/ NSF OHH Center. A two fold approach which includes faculty development and infrastructure development is being used. The MFBS Center encompasses two principle research themes; Marine Toxins and dietary risk and Marine Models of human disease. The OHH Center focuses on algal toxins and genomics and pathogenic microbes. For this ARCH program, we will continue to pursue our research theme of Algal Toxins and will expand our research into Trace Metals in the environment. This program will be a collaborative effort between eight faculty from four departments at FIU and six faculty from four departments at the University of Miami. An Administrative and Planning Core will provide administrative and clerical support to ARCH investigators at FIU and will coordinate activities with UM. In addition to an administrative assistant, who will assist with day to day operations, this core will be composed of three committees to direct and oversee the progress of the program; the IAC, the Executive Committee and the EAC. Program Evaluation will be provided through this core by an independent evaluator. The principal goal of the ARCH program is to establish externally funded, independent research programs in environmental health sciences which are relevant to the NIEHS mission at FIU. The Administrative and planning core will promote these goals through seminars and workshops, and will track the progress of ARCH faculty and provide this data to the independent evaluator. The Research Program Development Core will be composed of two core facilities and research and pilot projects. We propose the continuation of the Toxic Algae Culture Facility to support the research and two pilot projects. This core provides materials and services to ARCH researchers. In addition, we propose to add a Trace Metal Core Facility, which will support three of the proposed pilot projects. This facility will provide analytical support in trace metal analysis to ARCH researchers. Pilot projects will permit ARCH faculty at FIU to acquire preliminary data for research program grant applications.

描述（由申请人提供）： 这个建议是为我们的竞争性更新在佛罗里达国际大学（MSI）的MBA课程。我们的合作伙伴（RIU）机构是迈阿密大学，该大学拥有NIEHS MFBS中心和NIEHS/ NSF OHH中心。一个双重的方法，其中包括教师的发展和基础设施的发展正在使用。MFBS中心包括两个主要研究主题：海洋毒素和饮食风险以及人类疾病的海洋模型。OHH中心专注于藻类毒素和基因组学以及病原微生物。对于这个项目，我们将继续追求我们的藻类毒素的研究主题，并将我们的研究扩展到环境中的痕量金属。该计划将是FIU四个系的八名教师和迈阿密大学四个系的六名教师之间的合作努力。一个行政和规划核心将向金融情报室的反洗钱调查员提供行政和文书支助，并将与UM协调活动。除了一名协助日常运作的行政助理外，该核心还将由三个委员会组成，以指导和监督该计划的进展; IAC，执行委员会和EAC。项目评估将由独立评估员通过该核心提供。该方案的主要目标是建立外部资助的环境健康科学独立研究方案，这些方案与金融情报室的NIEHS使命有关。行政和规划核心将通过研讨会和讲习班促进这些目标，并将跟踪研究生院教师的进展情况，并将这一数据提供给独立评估员。研究计划开发核心将由两个核心设施和研究与试点项目组成。我们建议继续有毒藻类养殖设施，以支持研究和两个试点项目。该中心为研究人员提供材料和服务。此外，我们建议增设一个微量金属核心设施，以支持其中三个拟议的试验项目。这一设施将为原子能机构的研究人员提供痕量金属分析方面的分析支助。试点项目将允许金融情报学院的研究人员获得研究计划拨款申请的初步数据。
