ADMINISTRATION FOR CENTER FOR ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中利用 资源由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目和 调查员(PI)可能从NIH的另一个来源获得了主要资金， 并因此可以在其他清晰的条目中表示。列出的机构是 该中心不一定是调查人员的机构。 杰克逊州立大学(JSU)环境健康中心(CEH)成立于1998年，专注于环境健康领域的研究和开发。该中心的方法是多学科的，涉及大量具有不同但互补的学术和研究背景的生物医学科学家，他们汇集资源和经验，以应对与环境化合物对人类健康的有毒影响相关的重大公共卫生挑战。这项研究的重点是了解有毒物质损害健康、导致癌症和死亡等疾病的基本机制。环境卫生中心的长期目标是提供科学基础设施，以支持解决脆弱和服务不足社区所关注的重要环境和公共卫生问题的研究。因此，其总体目标是发展一个更全面的生物医学研究基础设施，以加强在联合技术大学进行环境健康和健康差距研究的能力。CEH已发展成为整合和应用生物医学和环境健康概念、方法和战略的“卓越中心”，以进行跨学科的环境健康研究，并满足我们社区的健康需求。开展了几项重要活动，包括行政核心、教师发展部分(辅导、研讨会、讲习班、会议)、研究基础设施增强部分(多用户核心设施)和生物医学能力建设部分(试点项目)。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The Jackson State University (JSU) RCMI - Center for Environmental Health (CEH) was established in 1998 with a focus on research and development in the area of environmental health. The center's approach is multi-disciplinary and involves a significant number of biomedical scientists with different but complementary academic and research backgrounds, pooling resources and experience together to address a major public health challenge associated with the toxic effects of environmental compounds on human health. The research focuses on the understanding of the basic mechanisms by which toxic substances damage health leading to disease states such as cancer and death. The long-term objective of the CEH is to provide a scientific infrastructure to support research that addresses important environmental and public health issues of concern to vulnerable and underserved communities. Hence, its overarching goal is to develop a more comprehensive biomedical research infrastructure to strengthen the capacity to conduct environmental health and health disparities research at JSU. CEH has evolved as a "Center for Excellence" in the integration and application of biomedical and environmental health concepts, methods and strategies for conducting interdisciplinary environmental heath research, and addressing the health needs of our communities. Several important activities including an administrative core, a faculty development component (mentoring, seminars, workshops, conferences), a research infrastructure enhancement component (multi-user core facilities), and a biomedical capacity building component (pilot projects) have been implemented.
