Abstract: Education/Outreach Core The primary goals of the Education and Outreach Core are to promote a better understanding of issues concerning reproductive health and infertility in low income, underserved communities and by middle school and high school students, as well as by adults. To develop a strong relationship with the community we will work with an advocate for community health in African American and other underserved groups to organize community meetings in health clinics in underserved areas of Pittsburgh. The P50 scientists will make presentations and answer questions in these community meetings. This core will also make use of a unique resource at the University of Pittsburgh, Pitt Science Outreach (www.pittscienceoutreach.com), that works with faculty across the university to develop novel science lectures and laboratories to translate an understanding of the research happening at the university into engaging learning experiences for the public. We will develop 3 new laboratory experiences to teach about male fertility and infertility treatment. These labs will be tested and optimized in Pittsburgh schools. We will also develop teacher workshops to facilitate the transfer of these laboratory activities to schools throughout Pittsburgh, Ithaca, New York, St. Louis. In each location we will train post-docs, graduate students and undergraduate students working with the P50 scientists to facilitate these labs when they are given in local classrooms in each community. We will make the new science activities available to all NCHD NCTRI investigators, as well as publish these protocols in education journals to maximize their availability. The aims of this Core are: (1) to hold community meetings in each of three health clinics in underserved communities in Pittsburgh to provide information about the causes and treatments of male infertility, (2) to develop three new hands-on science activities that teach about male reproductive biology and the genetic causes of infertility including a testis histology lab, a mock male fertility work-up lab, and a DNA isolation, sequencing and finger-printing lab, as well as a new lecture on the effects of environmental exposures on the epigenome and potential consequences for fertility and offspring, (3) develop a Teacher's Workshop curriculum to educate middle and high school teachers about male reproductive biology and the genetic causes of infertility and to provide them with adequate background to run these activities in their classrooms in Pittsburgh, Ithaca, New York and St. Louis, and (4) to deliver labs to reach an average of 1,000 students/year and an average of 150 adults/year in Pittsburgh in collaboration with Pitt Science Outreach, and facilitate delivery of labs to students in Pittsburgh, Ithaca, New York and St. Louis through teacher training with a goal of reaching an additional 400 students/year in underserved communities in all regions associated with this P50.

翻译后摘要：教育/推广核心 教育和外联核心的主要目标是促进更好地了解各种问题 关于低收入、服务不足社区和中学的生殖健康和不孕症问题 和高中生，以及成年人。为了与社区建立牢固的关系，我们将 与非裔美国人和其他服务不足群体的社区健康倡导者合作， 在匹兹堡服务不足地区的诊所举行社区会议。P50的科学家们将 在这些社区会议上进行演示并回答问题。该核心还将利用一种独特的 匹兹堡大学皮特科学推广中心（www.pittscienceoutreach.com）的资源， 整个大学的教师开发新的科学讲座和实验室，以翻译的理解 在大学里进行的研究为公众提供了参与学习的经验。我们将开发3 新的实验室经验，教授有关男性生育和不育治疗。这些实验室将被测试， 在匹兹堡的学校里进行了优化。我们亦会举办教师工作坊，以协助这些教师转介他们， 实验室活动，学校遍布匹兹堡，伊萨卡，纽约，圣路易斯。在每一个地方，我们将训练 博士后，研究生和本科生与P50科学家合作，以促进这些 实验室时，他们在每个社区的当地教室。我们将使新的科学活动 提供给所有NCHD NCTRI研究人员，并在教育期刊上发表这些协议， 最大限度地提高其可用性。该核心的目标是：（1）在三个卫生保健中心的每一个中心举行社区会议， 匹兹堡服务不足社区的诊所，提供有关的原因和治疗信息， 男性不育，（2）开发三个新的实践科学活动，教授男性生殖生物学 以及不育的遗传原因，包括睾丸组织学实验室，模拟男性生育能力检查实验室，以及 DNA分离、测序和指纹识别实验室，以及关于环境影响的新讲座 暴露在表观基因组和生育能力和后代的潜在后果，（3）制定教师的 讲习班课程，教育初中和高中教师关于男性生殖生物学和 不孕不育的遗传原因，并为他们提供足够的背景来开展这些活动 匹兹堡、伊萨卡、纽约和圣路易斯的教室，以及（4）提供实验室，平均达到1000个 学生/年和平均150名成年人/年在匹兹堡与皮特科学外展合作， 通过教师培训，为匹兹堡、伊萨卡、纽约和圣路易斯的学生提供实验室， 目标是在所有地区服务不足的社区每年增加400名学生， 这个P50
