项目总结/摘要 我们的环境健康科学综合区域培训计划的目标仍然是 招募和培训环境健康科学（EHS）的科学家。主要目标是：1）招聘 多样化的学员群体; 2）个性化的跨学科，体验式学习， 为每位受训者制定发展计划（IDP），以提供结构化的科学、专业和职业发展 3）培养下一代科学家成为环境健康科学领域的领导者; 健康科学（EHS）。更新资金被要求支持6名博士前培训生和3名博士后 实习生我们有一个强大的博士前和博士后申请人，谁是评估和选择 董事会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 同时通过吸引代表性不足的学员， 和弱势群体。我们的培训计划的结果将是录取学员与 技能，经验和道德，以解决广泛的复杂，关键和迅速发展的问题， EHS。我们的区域，跨学科的培训计划将延长我们近50年。卓越的传统， 俄勒冈州州立大学（OSU）、俄勒冈州健康科学部 太平洋西北国家实验室（Pacific Northwest National Labs，PNNL）。我们培训的主要演变 方案包括：实施个人发展计划，作为 我们的培训计划;减少教学课程;新的导师和研究课题;以及短 实习生，以进一步促进跨学科的培训和专业发展，在现实世界的潜力 就业环境。国内流离失所者为灵活、个性化的专业发展提供了框架 在EHS快速发展和新出现的挑战的背景下，学员 将获得在整个职业生涯中取得成功的核心能力。我们计划的主要优势 继续是我们的高生产力和协作培训教师;我们现有的非常成功的 多学科培训计划;和OSU提供的独特的协作培训环境， OHSU和PNNL，并由学术，监管和私人领域的新区域培训合作伙伴补充 板块我们不断发展的导师队伍包括30个持续和新的教师导师，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， 危害识别，接触生物学，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、代谢、饮食-环境相互作用和翻译 数据科学我们以前的学员继续在学术，公共和联邦作出重大贡献 展示我们培训计划的有效性。

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.
