Center for Child Environmental Health Risks Research

描述(摘自应用程序)：管理核心提供对中心活动的监督、协调和集成。它还协调内部指导委员会和外部咨询委员会的会议。这些委员会将监测中心在实现预期的科学和培训成果方面的进展情况，并根据需要提出调整建议。行政核心协调培训，目的是促进环境健康科学和儿童研究方面的跨学科培训。此外，这一核心不仅促进了该中心与华盛顿大学内外的合作者之间的关系 而且还与社区外联和翻译核心(COTC)和儿科卫生专家合作进行外联和翻译。该中心由公共卫生学院环境和职业健康科学系管理。该中心由首席研究员Elaine M.Faustman博士领导，由两个基于实验室的研究项目、两个基于实地的研究项目和三个设施核心组成，包括社区外联和翻译核心。这一三管齐下的方法结合了实验室、现场和社区的工作，使中心的研究项目和设施核心调查人员能够以真正协作和跨学科的方式工作，以减少环境农药暴露对儿童的不利影响，这一点从我们成熟的记录中得到了证明。该中心由行政核心指导，并从内部指导委员会和外部咨询委员会获得宝贵意见。与儿童环境健康研究相关的培训项目在华盛顿大学，有7个中心和研究所与我们的中心有联系，以及2所学校、5个系、弗雷德·哈钦森癌症研究中心和西雅图儿童医院。该中心还包括初级研究员、自2003年中心更新以来的新科学家和一名学院发展调查员。内部指导委员会由多名中心调查人员和主任组成。

Description (taken from application): The Administrative Core provides oversight, coordination, and integration of Center activities. It also coordinates the meetings of the Internal Steering Committee and the External Advisory Committee. These committees will monitor the Center's progress towards expected scientific and training outcomes and make suggestions for adjustment, as needed. The Administrative Core coordinates training, with the goal to advance cross-disciplinary training in environmental health sciences and children's research. In addition, this core facilitates not only relationships between the Center and collaborators both within and outside of the UW but also works with the Community Outreach and Translation Core (COTC) and Pediatric Health Specialist to do outreach and translation. The Center is administered through the Department of Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences in the School of Public Health. The Center, directed by principal investigator, Dr. Elaine M. Faustman is comprised of two laboratory-based research projects, two field-based research projects, and three facility cores, including the Community Outreach and Translation Core. This three-pronged approach combining work in the laboratory, in the field, and in the community allows the Center research project and facility core investigators to work in a truly collaborative and interdisciplinary manner to reduce the adverse effects of environmental pesticide exposures in children, as demonstrated by our proven track record. The Center is guided by the Administrative Core, and receives invaluable input from both the Internal Steering Committee and External Advisory Committee. Training programs pertinent to the study of children's environmental health at the University of Washington, seven centers and institutes are associated with our Center, as well as 2 schools, 5 departments, the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, and Seattle Children's Hospital. The Center also includes junior investigators, new scientists since the 2003 Center renewal, and a Faculty Development Investigator. The Internal Steering Committee in comprised of a number of Center investigators and directors.
