PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT - RESEARCH EXPERIENCE AND TRAINING COORDINATION CORE The major scientific theme of the University of Rhode Island (URI)-led STEEP (Sources, Transport, Exposure and Effects of PFAS) Center is to provide solutions to aid the NIH Superfund Research Program (SRP) in addressing emerging per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS), reducing human exposure, training, and engaging affected communities. The STEEP Research Experience and Training Coordination Core (RETCC) will provide pre- and post-doctoral level trainees with resources and opportunities to become skilled scientists/engineers, equipped to address various aspects of emerging contaminants, specifically the scientific, remediation, community, and translational facets of PFAS. To do so, STEEP has assembled a competent group of scientists, engineers, and professionals from URI, Harvard University, and Silent Spring Institute. RETCC will capitalize on the multi-institutional strengths of the STEEP team, centered on emerging contaminants, and proposes innovative and interdisciplinary training activities. In STEEP II, all trainees will participate in at least one of four new Trainee Action Centered Teams In Communities (TACTIC), focused on: (i) high-school pedagogy, (ii) research translation; (iii) science-policy support; and (iv) community engagement and outreach. The four STEEP research projects involve seven PIs/senior investigators and RETCC will maintain 10-12 fully supported graduate students as primary STEEP predoctoral trainees throughout the grant cycle. Additional graduate students will be supported as secondary STEEP trainees using Center funds for a total of 25 graduate trainees. In addition, two STEEP fellowships supporting students from underrepresented groups will be added through the URI Graduate School Minority Program (see “Institutional Commitment”). These graduate trainees are expected to be engaged fully in our rigorous and engaging interdisciplinary training activities (see “Proposed Training”). STEEP II also expects to support 4-6 postdoctoral trainees over the entire five-year funding period. Overall, STEEP II will provide a rich interdisciplinary training experience that brings together trainees from diverse scientific fields, including oceanography, public health, pharmacy, engineering, biostatistics, and computer science, empowering them to be change makers and problem-solvers. STEEP II trainees will be the next generation of scientists in hazardous substance research who can advance public policy, regulatory science, chemistry safety, and human health protection.

项目概要/摘要 - 研究经验和培训协调核心 罗德岛大学 (URI) 主导的 STEEP 的主要科学主题（来源、传输、暴露 PFAS 的影响和影响）中心将提供解决方案来帮助 NIH 超级基金研究计划 (SRP) 解决新出现的全氟和多氟烷基物质 (PFAS)、减少人类接触、培训和 让受影响社区参与进来。 STEEP 研究经验和培训协调核心 (RETCC) 将为博士前和博士后水平的学员提供成为技能的资源和机会 科学家/工程师，有能力解决新兴污染物的各个方面，特别是科学、 PFAS 的补救、社区和转化方面。为此，STEEP 组建了一个有能力的团队 由来自 URI、哈佛大学和寂静之泉研究所的科学家、工程师和专业人士组成。 RETCC将 利用 STEEP 团队的多机构优势，以新兴污染物为中心，以及 提出创新和跨学科的培训活动。在《STEEP II》中，所有练习生将至少参加 四个新的以学员行动为中心的社区团队 (TACTIC) 之一，重点关注：(i) 高中 教育学，(ii) 研究翻译； (iii) 科学政策支持； (iv) 社区参与和外展。 四个 STEEP 研究项目涉及 7 名 PI/高级研究员，RETCC 将充分保留 10-12 名 在整个拨款周期中支持研究生作为主要的 STEEP 博士前培训生。额外的 研究生将作为 STEEP 二级培训生使用中心资金为总共 25 名研究生提供支持 实习生。此外，还将增加两项 STEEP 奖学金，以支持代表性不足群体的学生 通过 URI 研究生院少数群体计划（参见“机构承诺”）。这些毕业实习生 预计将充分参与我们严格且引人入胜的跨学科培训活动（参见“拟议的 STEEP II 还预计在整个五年资助期内支持 4-6 名博士后培训生。 总体而言，STEEP II 将提供丰富的跨学科培训经验，汇集来自不同领域的学员 不同的科学领域，包括海洋学、公共卫生、药学、工程、生物统计学和 计算机科学，使他们成为变革者和问题解决者。 STEEP II 练习生将是 危险物质研究领域的下一代科学家可以推动公共政策、监管 科学、化学安全和人类健康保护。
