Core 2: UAB CounterACT Research Education Core (UAB CARE Core)

UAB反ACT研究教育核心（UAB CARE-Core）的使命，UAB核心2 卓越的砷研究中心（中心），是开发教育产品，以推进 在砷化学威胁和应用毒理学领域的知识和创新。UAB护理- 核心将提供补充短期多学科教育，在应用毒理学研究相关 砷剂和其他皮肤活性化学制剂。这将通过建立和扩大当地 和远程能力，以促进其调查人员，技术人员， 博士后研究员（医学博士和博士科学家），医学，研究生和本科生，与 目标是增加该领域研究人员的数量和能力。我们的目标是提高 在与化学威胁和生物防御相关的研究中，并鼓励扩大研究计划， 我们的机构和领域。UAB CARE-Core将支持NIH战略的关键组成部分，以确定， 通过以下方式发展、支持和保持我们科学研究队伍中科学人力资本的质量 在所有教育项目中促进多样性。UAB CARE核心的教育活动将是 沿着与急性化学威胁有关的三个重点领域：基础科学、临床和转化 科学和多学科外联。这些重点领域反映了高度多学科和翻译 应用毒理学的本质该中心与砷有关的科学活动和研究结果将用于 UAB CARE-Core的教育产品，以帮助激励和统一的核心活动，虽然 教育主题将是共同的一系列皮肤活性化学剂，强调更广泛的点 应用毒理学最后，UAB CARE-Core确认其关于负责任行为的承诺， 研究（RCR）培训。除了UAB要求的RCR培训外，还将嵌入RCR培训主题 每个项目年度由核心提供的教育产品。所有教育活动将在 中心的研究和开发项目网站和整个UAB的临床和教育网站。距离- 将创建基于的产品，以扩大UAB CARE-Core教育产品的覆盖范围。总的来说， UAB CARE-Core将提高专业和公众对疾病生物学基础的认识， 针对砷威胁的潜在疗法和以社区为基础的应对这些威胁的办法。

The mission of the UAB CounterACT Research Education Core (UAB CARE-Core), Core 2 of the UAB Research Center of Excellence in Arsenicals (Center), is to develop educational offerings to advance knowledge and innovation in the area of arsenical chemical threat and applied toxicology. The UAB CARE- Core will provide complementary short-term multidisciplinary education in applied toxicological research related to arsenicals and other dermally active chemical agents. This will be achieved by creating and expanding local and remote capabilities for facilitating the development of key skill sets in its investigators, technicians, postdoctoral fellows (MD and PhD scientists), and medical, graduate and undergraduate students, with the goal of increasing the number and capabilities of researchers in the field. It is our objective to enhance interest in research related to chemical threats and biodefense and to encourage expanded research programs across our institution and field. The UAB CARE-Core will support the key component of the NIH strategy to identify, develop, support, and maintain the quality of our scientific human capital in the scientific research workforce by fostering diversity in all of its educational programs. The educational activities of the UAB CARE-Core will be organized along three focus areas related to acute chemical threats: basic science, clinical and translational science, and multidisciplinary outreach. These focus areas reflect the highly multidisciplinary and translational nature of applied toxicology. The Center's scientific arsenicals-related activities and findings will be used in the UAB CARE-Core's educational offerings to help motivate and unify the Core activities, although the educational themes will be common to a range of dermally active chemical agents, emphasizing broader points in applied toxicology. Finally, the UAB CARE-Core affirms its commitment regarding Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) training. In addition to UAB's required RCR trainings, RCR training topics will be imbedded into educational offerings provided by the Core each project year. All educational activities will take place at the Center's Research and Development Project sites and in clinical and educational sites across UAB. Distance- based offerings will be created to expand the reach of UAB CARE-Core educational offerings. Thus overall, the UAB CARE-Core will increase awareness in professional and public audiences of the biological basis of and potential therapies for arsenical threats and community-based approaches to prepare for these threats.
