Integrated Regional Training Program in Environmental Health Sciences

项目摘要/摘要 我们在环境健康科学方面的综合区域培训方案的目标仍然是 招募和培训环境健康科学(EHS)的科学家。主要目标是：1)招聘一名 培训对象多样化；2)利用个人实现跨学科的个性化体验式学习 每个受训人员的发展计划(IDP)，以提供系统的科学、专业和职业发展 环境健康科学；3)培养下一代科学家成为环境领域的领导者 健康科学(EHS)。申请续签资金，以支持6名博士前实习生和3名博士后 实习生。我们有一个强大的博士后和博士后申请者人才库，他们由 联席董事和我们的内部咨询委员会。我们的招聘流程旨在吸引最优秀的人才 同时通过吸引代表人数不足的受训者在我们的培训队列中实现多样性 和STEM中的弱势群体。我们培训计划的结果将是录取学员 解决各种复杂、关键且快速发展的问题所需的技能、经验和道德 EHS。我们的地区性、跨学科培训计划将延长我们近50年的时间。优秀的传统在 俄勒冈州立大学(OSU)与俄勒冈健康科学学院合作开展EHS研究和培训 大学(OHSU)和太平洋西北国家实验室(PNNL)。我们培训的主要演变 方案包括：实施个人发展计划，作为实现以下目标的基本框架 我们的培训计划；教学课程的减少；新的导师和研究主题；以及简短的 外部奖学金，以进一步促进跨学科培训和在现实世界潜力中的专业发展 就业环境。国内流离失所者为灵活、个性化的职业发展提供了框架 以及在EHS快速发展和新出现的挑战背景下的体验式培训需求。实习生 将获得在其职业生涯中取得成功的核心能力。我们计划的主要优势 继续成为我们高效和协作的培训人员；我们现有的非常成功 多学科培训计划；以及俄亥俄州立大学提供的独特的协作培训环境， OHSU和PNNL，并得到学术、监管和私立领域新的区域培训合作伙伴的补充 扇区。我们不断发展的导师队伍包括30名持续的和新的教师导师，提供广泛的多样性 EHS培训主题：分子毒理学、环境化学、生态毒理学、系统毒理学、 危险识别、暴露生物学、流行病学、发育毒理学、纳米毒理学、 计算和预测毒理学，微生物组/环境相互作用，神经/行为毒理学， 个体间易感性、金属毒理学、新陈代谢、饮食-环境相互作用和翻译 数据科学。我们以前的实习生继续在学术界、公众和联邦政府做出重大贡献 显示我们培训计划有效性的部门。

PROJECT SUMMARY/ ABSTRACT The objective for our Integrated Regional Training Program in Environmental Health Sciences continues to be to recruit and train scientists in the Environmental Health Sciences (EHS). Primary goals are: 1) Recruit a diverse cohort of trainees; 2) Individualize transdisciplinary, experiential learning employing Individual Development Plans (IDP) for each trainee to provide structured scientific, professional and career development in the environmental health sciences; 3) Train the next generation of scientists to be leaders in environmental health sciences (EHS). Renewal funding is requested to support 6 pre-doctoral trainees and 3 post-doctoral trainees. We have a strong pool of pre-doctoral and post-doctoral applicants, who are evaluated and selected by the Co-Directors and our Internal Advisory Committee. Our recruitment process is designed to attract the best and brightest while also attaining diversity in our training cohort by attracting trainees from underrepresented and disadvantaged groups in STEM. The outcome of our training program will be to matriculate trainees with the skills, experience, and ethics to address a wide range of complex, critical, and rapidly evolving problems in EHS. Our regional, transdisciplinary training program will extend our nearly 50 yr. tradition of excellence in collaborative EHS research and training between Oregon State University (OSU), Oregon Health Sciences University (OHSU) and Pacific Northwest National Labs (PNNL). The major evolutions of our training program include: implementation of Individual Development Plans (IDPs) as the foundational framework for our training program; reduction in didactic coursework; new mentors and research topics; and short externships to further promote interdisciplinary training and professional development in real-world potential employment environments. IDPs provide the framework for flexible, individualized professional development and experiential training needs in the context of rapidly evolving and emerging challenges in EHS. Trainees will acquire the core competencies to be successful throughout their careers. Major strengths of our program continue to be our highly productive and collaborative training faculty; our existing highly successful multidisciplinary training program; and the unique collaborative training environment provided by OSU, OHSU and PNNL and supplemented by new regional training partners in the academic, regulatory, and private sectors. Our evolving mentor cohort includes 30 continuing and new faculty mentors, offering a wide diversity of training topics in EHS: molecular toxicology, environmental chemistry, ecotoxicology, systems toxicology, hazard identification, exposure biology, epidemiology, developmental toxicology, nanotoxicology, computational and predictive toxicology, microbiome/environment interactions, neuro/behavioral toxicology, inter-individual susceptibility, metal toxicology, metabolism, diet-environment interactions and translational data sciences. Our former trainees continue to make major contributions in the academic, public, and federal sectors demonstrating the effectiveness of our training program.
