Academic Year Health, Air Pollution, and Population Initiative in Education and Science Training (AY HAPPIEST)

项目摘要 家长项目的总体目标是培养犹他州大学（犹他州）的本科生， 在空气污染相关的健康研究中，通过教师指导， 夏季计划，称为健康，空气污染和人口教育和科学培训倡议 （HAPPIEST）。这一行政补充将扩大快乐的研究机会，以学术 一年，选定的参与者。由于暴露于空气污染在种族/少数民族社区被放大， 在美国，必须让这些社区的成员，特别是大学生， STEM致力于解决空气质量差和环境不平等造成的复杂问题。 有了这项行政补助，我们将在原有的范围内实现以下目标： 同行审查和批准的项目： 目标1.将夏季HAPPIEST指导“实践社区”模式扩展到学术领域 一年，以丰富学生的培训和深化跨学科的合作，以团队为基础 环境卫生研究。 目标2.将学年HAPPIEST评估与暑期HAPPIEST评估挂钩，提高质量 和所有快乐编程的有效性，以及通知未来的本科生研究 旨在提高NIEHS中代表性不足群体的参与度的培训方案- 相关研究。 在家长奖中，每年夏天的“实践社区”包括四个研究团队，每个团队有两个 本科生，一名研究生培训协调员，至少一名教师导师。的 行政补充将资助一个学年（AY）HAPPIEST研究团队，由两个 夏季2022 HAPPIEST本科生，夏季2021 HAPPIEST研究生培训协调员， 和三名教师导师参与了2021年和2022年夏季的HAPPIEST。跨学科团队将 从事一项研究项目，调查工业空气污染对知识分子的跨代影响。 残疾。使用资产导向的方法，旨在建立学生的优势，AY HAPPIEST活动将 为学生进入环境健康科学的竞争性研究生课程做好准备。的 项目是伟大的

PROJECT SUMMARY The overall goal of the parent project is to train University of Utah (UOU) undergraduate students from underrepresented racial/ethnic backgrounds in air pollution-related health research through a faculty-mentored summer program called Health, Air Pollution and Population Initiative in Education and Science Training (HAPPIEST). This administrative supplement will extend HAPPIEST research opportunities to the academic year for selected participants. Since exposure to air pollution is magnified in racial/ethnic minority communities in the United States, it is imperative to engage members of these communities—especially college students with STEM interests—in addressing the complex problems caused by poor air quality and environmental inequity. With this administrative supplement, we will achieve the following aims, which are within the original scope of the peer-reviewed and approved project: Aim 1. Extend the summer HAPPIEST mentoring “community of practice” model to the academic year to enrich student training and deepen interdisciplinary collaboration on team-based environmental health research. Aim 2. Link the evaluation of academic year HAPPIEST to summer HAPPIEST to improve the quality and effectiveness of all HAPPIEST programming, as well as inform future undergraduate research training programs that aim to increase the participation of underrepresented groups in NIEHS- related research. In the parent award, the “community of practice” every summer includes four research teams, each with two undergraduate students, one graduate student training coordinator, and at least one faculty mentor. The administrative supplement will fund one academic year (AY) HAPPIEST research team, comprised to two summer 2022 HAPPIEST undergraduates, a summer 2021 HAPPIEST graduate student training coordinator, and three faculty mentors involved with HAPPIEST in summers 2021 and 2022. The interdisciplinary team will work on a research project investigating transgenerational effects of industrial air pollution on intellectual disability. Using an asset-oriented approach designed to build on student strengths, AY HAPPIEST activities will prepare students for placement into competitive graduate programs in the environmental health sciences. The project is of great
