The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) is offering the Superfund Hazardous Substance Research and Training Program (SRP) Centers grant to support problem-based, solution-oriented research centers. This grant aims to advance techniques for detecting, assessing, and evaluating the effects of hazardous substances on human health, and to develop methods for risk assessment. Furthermore, it focuses on technologies for detecting hazardous substances in the environment and basic biological, chemical, and physical methods to reduce their amount and toxicity. Each center will comprise multiple integrated biomedical and environmental science projects, alongside core functions encompassing administration, community engagement, research translation, training, and research support. This initiative directly aligns with the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act, fostering comprehensive solutions to hazardous substance challenges.

| Description: | The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) is announcing the continuation of the Superfund Hazardous Substance Research and Training Program, referred to as Superfund Research Program (SRP) Centers. SRP Center grants will support problem-based, solution-oriented research Centers that consist of multiple, integrated projects representing both the biomedical and environmental science and engineering disciplines; as well as cores tasked with administrative, community engagement, research translation, training, and research support functions. The scope of the SRP Centers is taken directly from the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986, and includes: (1) advanced techniques for the detection, assessment, and evaluation of the effect on human health of hazardous substances; (2) methods to assess the risks to human health presented by hazardous substances; (3) methods and technologies to detect hazardous substances in the environment; and (4) basic biological, chemical, and physical methods to reduce the amount and toxicity of hazardous substances. |
