Environmental Exposure Assessment Grant by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences

This department is offering a grant to validate and demonstrate prototype devices for environmental exposure assessment. The grant is intended to support the translation of these devices into practical field use through a phased validation process involving tool developers and environmental epidemiologists. The initial phase focuses on refining the prototype through evaluation in a pilot study, aiming to showcase data quality, tool reliability, and usability. The subsequent phase involves a larger epidemiological study to highlight the tool’s scientific value in improving exposure assessment and understanding exposure-health outcome relationships. Closing date: Feb 04, 2014.

Description::	This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is intended to facilitate the translation of prototype devices for characterization of personal exposures into field use by supporting a phased validation effort involving a partnership between tool developers and environmental epidemiologists. In the initial (R21) phase, the focus is on iterative refinement of the prototype based on evaluation in a pilot scale study. The goal of this phase is to demonstrate data quality, tool reliability, and usability in a real world and relevant setting. The second (R33) phase will involve larger scale application in a larger epidemiological study to demonstrate the added scientific value of the tool in terms of both improved exposure assessment and estimation of exposure-health outcome relationships.
