Environmental Health Sciences Core Center Grants (P30): The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) invites applications from qualified institutions for support of Environmental Health Sciences (EHS) Core Centers. These Centers are designed to establish innovative programs of excellence in the field of environmental health sciences by providing scientific and programmatic support for promising investigators and areas of research. A Core Center Grant is an institutional award to support centralized scientific resources and facilities shared by investigators with existing research projects. By providing a Center structure and Core resources this support is intended to enhance the ability of scientists working the field of environmental health sciences to identify and capitalize on current and emerging opportunities that will lead to outstanding research advances to improve our understanding of the relationship between environmental exposures and both human biology and human disease. These Centers provide the framework to support and maintain a high level of productivity of research grants at the institution and activities to develop new research which builds on current strengths but promotes translation to clinical and public health applications. An EHS Core Center Grant helps to integrate and promote research in existing projects and provides an administrative framework within one or several central themes. However, no funds are provided for direct support of research projects. Funds are provided for pilot projects, recruitment of select new investigators, and research program development.
