View Award Description

Biostatistics for Research in Environmental Health - This is a competing renewal application for the UNIversity of North Carolina-Chapel Hill T32 in Biostatistics for Research in Environmental Health (UNITE T32). Our unique program integrates strengths in environmental health sciences and engineering (ENVR), environmental epidemiology (ENVR-EPID), and environmental biostatistics (ENVR-BIOS) to provide students with cutting-edge training and methodological skills necessary to leverage next-generation tools, tackle emerging environmental health threats, and accelerate scientific discovery. We provide outstanding didactic training for predoctoral and postdoctoral scholars, equip trainees with critical data science skills, offer opportunities for impactful and innovative environmental health research and North Carolina-based community engagement, and advance the environmental health sciences workforce pipeline. Our training program places particular emphasis in three thematic areas: (1) data science for environmental public health; (2) emerging contaminants; and (3) community-engaged environmental health research. These areas of emphasis provide synergy across departments and enrich the training experience by informing professional development opportunities, engaging external collaborators for interdisciplinary trainee research, and promoting relevant scientific seminars and journal club offerings. The UNITE T32 is situated within the interdisciplinary research environment of the Gillings School of Global Public Health at UNC Chapel Hill (UNC SPH), which ranks 2nd among schools of Public Health in the nation and #1 among public schools of Public Health. The UNC SPH houses the NIEHS-funded Center for Environmental Health and Susceptibility and Superfund Research Program, as well as multiple other environmentally-focused research centers and institutes. Training faculty at UNC have over $37M in environmentally-focused research funding and lead core facilities that provide opportunities for trainees to establish proficiency in a wide range of methodologies. UNC institutional commitment is strong, with $2,644,000 in funds for faculty start-ups, MPI effort, and administrative support. The UNITE T32 includes 45 outstanding environment health sciences mentors, with exceptional track records of research spanning multiple interest areas. Selection of pre- and postdoctoral trainees for the UNITE T32 is based on academic success, strength of the proposed research, relevance of the research to Program goals, and commitment to environmental health sciences. Trainees attend professional development workshops and obtain specialized training in rigorous research methodology, research ethics, and proposal development, with opportunities to present their research to local, national and international audiences. This application requests support to allow 23 predoctoral and 5 postdoctoral trainees across three departments to become leaders in the field of environmental health research, thus supporting global efforts to reduce the environmental impact on human health. The successful track record of the UNITE T32 justifies this investment, with former trainees in premier academic, government, industry and non-profit positions. Modified
