K.C. Donnelly Externship Admin Supplement for Erin Molly Frazar P42ES007380 UKSRC

KC唐纳利摘要E。莫莉·弗雷泽 我目前的UK-SRP资助研究旨在开发廉价、可重复使用的聚合物 用于PFAS捕获和去除的吸附剂。具体地，可以选择性地结合 和释放PFAS污染物的设计，开发和优化，从而提供了一个 目前市售水修复吸附剂的低成本可持续替代品。 为了更好地通知我的PFAS为基础的研究，建议KC唐纳利实习项目 将在人类健康和生态风险的发展提供教育机会 考核在美国环境保护局的阿曼达·珀萨德博士的指导下 公共卫生和环境评估机构中心，我将学习如何进行 环境影响评估，包括危险识别、行动方式 分析、剂量反应分析、系统性综述和用于证据的计算工具 分析.通过这次实习，我将更深入地了解如何最好地申请 环境研究，以支持与风险评估有关的立法行动。 具体目标1。学习如何进行环境影响评估， 识别和系统审查。为了学会如何弥合研究与研究之间的差距， 社区和地区办事处，负责制定管理、执行和补救措施 我将学习如何确定污染物或其他压力源可能会影响人类健康 和环境保护 具体目标2。通过现场参观获得EPA研究机构的实际经验 亲自访问将为我提供专业的网络机会，同时发展 人类健康和生态风险评估，并利用健全的科学程序来确定 污染物或其他压力源如何影响人类健康和环境。

KC Donnelly Abstract for E. Molly Frazar My current UK-SRP funded research seeks to develop inexpensive, reusable polymeric sorbents for PFAS capture and removal. Specifically, polymeric sorbents that can selectively bind and release PFAS contaminants are designed, developed and optimized, thereby providing a low-cost sustainable alternative to the current commercially available water remediation sorbents. In order to better inform my PFAS based research, the proposed KC Donnelly Externship project will provide educational opportunities in the development of human health and ecological risk assessment. Under the direction of Dr. Amanda Persad in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Center for Public Health and Environmental Assessment, I will learn how to conduct environmental impact assessments which will consists of hazard identification, mode of action analysis, dose-response analysis, systematic review and computational tools used for evidence analysis. Through this externship, I will gain a deeper understanding of how to best apply environmental research in order to support legislative action related to risk assessment. Specific Aim 1. To learn how to conduct environmental impact assessments consisting of hazard identification and systemic review. In order to learn how to bridge the gap between the research community and regional offices who make regulatory, enforcement, and remedial action decisions I will learn to determine how pollutants or other stressors may impact human health and the environment. Specific Aim 2. To gain hands on experience in an EPA research facility through onsite visits In person visits will equip me with professional networking opportunities while developing human health and ecological risk assessments and using robust scientific processes to determine how pollutants or other stressors may impact human health and the environment.
