项目摘要

 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant Environmental exposures are major causes of death and morbidity globally, and both outdoor and household air pollution are increasingly recognized as major contributors to years of life lost and disability-adjusted life years (DALY). Rapid urbanization In India has resulted in some of the world's worst air pollution, which contributes to the deaths of more than 620,000 Indians annually. Despite the known health effects of indoor and outdoor pollution, data are lacking on the dose-response relationship between exposures and specific causes of death and intermediate variables such as cardiometabolic factors in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) such as India. Generation of data on the unique characteristics of environmental exposures in LMICs is urgently needed in order to mitigate the health effects. Not only is there a need to understand more about exposures in LMICs, but there is also a need to improve training of environmental health professionals who can translate this information into interventions to decrease exposure and improve health. The number of public health professionals in India is 1-2 orders of magnitude less than the estimated need, and the situation is particularly dire in the areas of environmental and occupational health. A sustained effort to increase the number of public health professionals with both deep training in environmental and occupational research methods and broad training in these areas as part of MPH or diploma degrees is urgently needed in India. In this proposed project, entitled "Air Pollution and Health GeoHealth Hub Research and Capacity Building-US," we have assembled a multidisciplinary group of researchers, mentors and program faculty from the Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) and Public Health Foundation of India (PHFI) to generate data needed to address the unique characteristics of exposures in India and to build the capacity of public health professionals in India to conduct high quality research and knowledge that can be translated into policy improvements. The training program will include a robust platform of short, medium, and long-range training components, including: Master's level training at HSPH, an intensive summer training and mentored research program, curriculum that will support the institution of an environmental health concentration in PHFI's existing Master's level training, and support for PHFI faculty involved in the U01 to complete mentored research activities at HSPH. The project will be led by Dr.Cash and Dr.Schwartz from HSPH and by Dr. Prabhakaran and Dr. Reddy from PHFI, who will be assisted by the: 1) Administrative Oversight Committee; 2) Training Oversight Committee; 3) Program coordination personnel at HSPH and PHFI; and 4) Supervisory teams to provide oversight for individual trainees. Evidence from the research conducted under the linked U01 will directly inform Indian government agencies and policy makers on how to reduce air pollution levels in order to reduce the consequent burden of disease. The proposed training of PHFI scientists will give build capacity to apply for future funding and fully understand and address this environmental threat.
 描述(由申请人提供) 环境暴露是全球死亡和发病的主要原因,人们越来越认识到室外和家庭空气污染是导致寿命损失和伤残调整生命年 (DALY) 的主要原因。印度的快速城市化导致了世界上一些最严重的空气污染,这导致 每年有超过 62 万印度人死亡。尽管室内和室外污染对健康的影响是已知的,但在印度等低收入和中等收入国家 (LMIC) 中,缺乏暴露与具体死因以及心脏代谢因素等中间变量之间的剂量反应关系的数据。为了减轻健康影响,迫切需要生成有关中低收入国家环境暴露独特特征的数据。不仅需要更多地了解中低收入国家的暴露情况,而且还需要改进对环境卫生专业人员的培训,他们可以将这些信息转化为干预措施,以减少暴露并改善健康。印度公共卫生专业人员的数量比估计需求少1-2个数量级,环境和职业健康领域的情况尤其严峻。印度迫切需要持续努力增加公共卫生专业人员的数量,这些专业人员不仅接受环境和职业研究方法方面的深入培训,还接受这些领域的广泛培训,作为公共卫生硕士或文凭学位的一部分。在这个题为“美国空气污染与健康地球健康中心研究和能力建设”的拟议项目中,我们召集了来自哈佛大学公共卫生学院 (HSPH) 和印度公共卫生基金会 (PHFI) 的多学科研究人员、导师和项目教员小组,以生成解决印度暴露的独特特征所需的数据,并培养印度公共卫生专业人员进行高质量研究和知识的能力,这些研究和知识可以转化为政策 改进。该培训计划将包括一个由短期、中期和长期培训组成的强大平台,包括:HSPH 的硕士水平培训、夏季强化培训和指导研究计划、支持 PHFI 现有硕士水平培训中的环境健康重点机构的课程,以及支持参与 U01 的 PHFI 教师在 HSPH 完成指导研究活动。该项目将由 HSPH 的 Cash 博士和 Schwartz 博士以及 PHFI 的 Prabhakaran 博士和 Reddy 博士领导,他们将得到以下机构的协助: 1) 行政监督委员会; 2)培训监督委员会; 3)HSPH和PHFI的项目协调人员; 4) 监督小组对个别学员进行监督。相关 U01 下进行的研究证据将直接告知印度政府机构和政策制定者如何降低空气污染水平,以减轻随之而来的疾病负担。拟议的 PHFI 科学家培训将增强申请未来资金并充分理解和应对这一环境威胁的能力。
