Integrated Health Sciences Facility Core (IHS)

摘要：综合健康科学中心 CEED的使命是利用新兴科学， 工程和技术，以确定环境，基因组和表观基因组如何相互作用，以调节 不良健康后果的风险。综合健康科学设施核心（IHSFC）发挥着核心作用 在实现CEED的这一研究使命作为中心的跨学科和翻译的纽带， research. IHSFC促进来自不同学科的CEED成员之间的对话，并提供指导 以及设计和实施人口（观察）和临床流行病学研究方面的培训。它 提供广泛的方法学方面的专业知识，包括控制暴露，调查研究，控制 新生物标志物的临床试验和临床小组研究。IHSFC也是生物统计学、数据 管理、归档和安全性。它还为人类受试者保护提供专业知识和支持 包括IRB和HIPAA合规性。该核心与我们的社区参与核心（CoEC）协同作用， 通过重叠的教师和工作人员，以支持参与性研究，并确定机会， IHSFC招聘。

ABSTRACT: INTEGRATED HEALTH SCIENCES FACILITY CORE The mission of CEED is to improve human health through translational research using emerging science, engineering, and technology to determine how the environment, genome and epigenome interact to modulate the risk of adverse health outcomes. The Integrated Health Sciences Facility Core (IHSFC) plays a central role in achieving this research mission of the CEED as the nexus for the Center’s interdisciplinary and translational research. The IHSFC facilitates dialog among CEED members from different disciplines and provides guidance and training in design and implementation of studies in population (observational) and clinical epidemiology. It provides expertise in a wide range of methodologies including controlled exposure, survey research, controlled trials, and clinical panel studies of novel biomarkers. The IHSFC is also the portal for biostatistics, data management, archiving, and security. It also provides expertise and support for human subjects protection including IRB and HIPAA compliance. The Core synergizes with our Community Engagement Core (CoEC), through overlapping faculty and staff, to support participatory research and identify opportunities for recruitment by the IHSFC.
