What Is This Program?

The NIEHS Hazardous Substance Basic Research and Training Program utilizes the Hazardous Substances Basic Research Grants Program (NIEHS) to support basic research and training directed towards understanding and attenuating the public health effects resulting from exposure to hazardous substances. Areas of research must be within scope of Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 and the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986 and may include: 1) advanced techniques for detection, assessment and evaluation of the effects on human health of hazardous substances; 2) methods to assess 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. This program utilizes the P42 mechanism for broad-based, multi-disciplinary research Centers which integrate biomedical research projects with environmental science/engineering disciplines (such as engineering, hydrogeology, ecology and epidemiology). The grant can provide support for shared resources used by the Center (e.g., research support, administrative, data sharing, training opportunities).
