Project Summary This new application seeks NIEHS RISE (R25) sponsorship for our innovative advanced program entitled “Frontiers in Environmental Science and Human Health (FrESH)” to train and mentor promising graduates, medical students, post-doctoral fellows and junior faculty from predominantly underrepresented communities in sophisticated technologies in Environmental Health Science Research research. This proposal is responsive to RFA-ES-20-015 as its main goal is to create educational opportunities for graduate students, medical students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty in areas of environmental health science research pertinent to the NIEHS, while fostering the career development of these students and fellows. A major strength of FrESH is that it draws from underrepresented minority (URM) applicant pools; The Atlanta University Center (AUC) which includes Morehouse College, Spelman College and Clark Atlanta University, which is the largest consortium of black institutions of higher education in the USA as well as Hispanic and Native American Serving Institutions. Morehouse School of Medicine (MSM) is linked directly to these institutions through a formal system of pipeline programs. In addition, we plan to draw URM’s from other institutions regardless of their URM population size. Our target population is diverse and among the most promising nationally competitive trainees. FrESH offers dynamic training through a series of daily lecturers on emerging concepts, extended discussion, laboratory research, workshops and informal seminars for a week-long summer course. The primary aim is the development of an intense laboratory-based training for 16 participants per year to educate them in Environmental Health Science, and to help launch and sustain their careers. We propose a five-year program to enroll a total of eighty (80) trainees (16 trainees per year) for training at MSM. In summary, FrESH will offer dynamic and sophisticated training courses that consist of daily lectures from leading experts, active learning sessions, and extended discussions on important and emerging topics followed by hands-on laboratory sessions. Examples of topics within FrESH include: disparate impacts of air pollutants, water pollutants, and common persistent pollutants such as flame retardants and pesticides; gene x environment interactions in driving health outcomes; exposome and lifetime exposure impacts on human health; impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on human exposures to environmental toxicants; and dissemination and implementation strategies to engage health care providers to consider environmental contaminants in diagnoses and treatments, especially with regard to URM patients.

项目摘要 这个新的应用程序寻求NIEHS上升（R25）赞助我们的创新先进的计划， “环境科学与人类健康前沿（FrESH）”培训和指导有前途的毕业生， 医学生，博士后研究员和初级教师来自主要代表性不足的社区， 环境健康科学研究中的尖端技术。这项建议是响应 RFA-ES-20-015的主要目标是为研究生，医学生， 博士后研究员，以及与NIEHS相关的环境健康科学研究领域的初级教师， 同时促进这些学生和研究员的职业发展。FrESH的一个主要优点是它可以吸引 来自代表性不足的少数民族（URM）申请人池;亚特兰大大学中心（AUC），其中包括 莫尔豪斯学院，斯佩尔曼学院和克拉克亚特兰大大学，这是最大的黑人联盟， 高等教育机构在美国以及西班牙裔和美洲原住民服务机构。 莫尔豪斯医学院（MSM）通过正式的管道系统直接与这些机构联系 程序.此外，我们亦计划从其他院校，不论其大学资源管理人员的人数多寡，吸纳大学资源管理人员。 我们的目标人群是多样化的，是最有前途的国家竞争力的学员。FrESH提供 通过一系列关于新兴概念的日常讲师进行动态培训，扩大讨论，实验室 为期一周的暑期课程包括研究、讲习班和非正式研讨会。首要目标是发展 每年为16名参与者提供密集的实验室培训，对他们进行环境卫生教育 科学，并帮助启动和维持他们的职业生涯。我们提出了一个五年计划，总共招收80名 (80)在男男性接触者培训中心培训学员（每年16名学员）。总之，FrESH将提供动态和复杂的 培训课程，包括来自领先专家的日常讲座，积极的学习课程， 讨论重要的和新出现的主题，然后是动手实验室会议。主题示例 在FrESH中包括：空气污染物、水污染物和常见持久性污染物的不同影响 如阻燃剂和杀虫剂;基因x环境相互作用在推动健康结果;麻烦 2019冠状病毒病大流行对人类暴露的影响 环境毒物;以及宣传和实施战略，使卫生保健提供者参与， 在诊断和治疗中考虑环境污染物，特别是对于URM患者。
