The Research Translation Core (RTC) focuses on improving scientific and public understanding of how Superfund chemicals harm human health and how to reduce exposure to those chemicals, enabling government officials and the public to make informed decisions about reducing risk. We emphasize the high priority Superfund chemicals studied within the UNC SRP. The RTC aims to: (1) foster and coordinate research translation efforts within UNC SRP and share our results with NIEHS and other SRPs, (2) raise awareness of UNC SRP research among federal, state and local government agencies and build their capacity to protect health and the environment around contaminated sites; (3) advance the practical contributions of our research through development of decision support tools and innovative environmental technology; (4) raise awareness among teachers and other broad audiences of UNC SRP research findings and general environmental health concepts related to hazardous chemical exposure; and (5) increase our students' knowledge of research translation concepts. The RTC will continue current efforts to raise awareness of UNC SRP research and extend them to new state agency partners. We will also implement new initiatives designed to respond to research needs identified by state agencies and local health departments in communities with hazardous waste sites. The RTC will continue to assist NCDENR and NCDHHS in creating decision making tools that index cumulative exposure to pollutants and health outcomes, refining beta versions of these tools and implementing new efforts to train agency staff in their use. We will also work with the UNC Office of Technology Development to assist researchers in the commercialization process. In addition, the RTC will continue and expand its teacher professional development activities, enabling us to effectively share Superfund related science with broad audiences in appropriate ways. We will also conduct short courses on research translation topics for Environmental Sciences and Engineering students.

研究翻译核心 (RTC) 致力于提高科学和公众对超级基金化学品如何危害人类健康以及如何减少接触这些化学品的理解，使政府官员和公众能够就降低风险做出明智的决定。我们强调 UNC SRP 内研究的高度优先的超级基金化学品。 RTC 的目标是：(1) 促进和协调 UNC SRP 内的研究翻译工作，并与 NIEHS 和其他 SRP 分享我们的成果，(2) 联邦、州和地方政府机构对 UNC SRP 研究的认识，并建设其保护受污染场地周围健康和环境的能力； (3) 通过开发决策支持工具和创新环境技术，推进我们研究的实际贡献； (4) 提高教师和其他广大受众对 UNC SRP 研究结果以及与危险化学品暴露相关的一般环境健康概念的认识； (5) 增加学生对研究翻译概念的了解。 RTC 将继续当前的努力，提高人们对北卡罗来纳大学 SRP 研究的认识，并将其推广到新的州机构合作伙伴。我们还将实施新举措，旨在满足国家机构和当地卫生部门在拥有危险废物场的社区确定的研究需求。 RTC 将继续协助 NCDENR 和 NCDHHS 创建决策工具，对污染物累积暴露和健康结果进行索引，完善这些工具的测试版，并采取新措施培训机构工作人员使用这些工具。我们还将与北卡罗来纳大学技术开发办公室合作，协助研究人员进行商业化进程。此外，RTC将继续并扩大其教师专业发展活动，使我们能够以适当的方式与广大受众有效地分享超级基金相关的科学知识。我们还将举办有关环境研究翻译主题的短期课程 科学和工程专业的学生。
