Description

The goal of the Pediatric and Reproductive Environmental Health Scholars (PREHS) program is to create a strong network of healthcare professionals who possess the skills and knowledge to address the complexities of pediatric and reproductive environmental health. The PREHS program will introduce new pediatric healthcare providers, obstetricians and gynecologists, and other healthcare professionals with state of the art environmental health training that blends academic research and practice-based applications in real-world settings. Furthermore, it provides scholars with experience in translating environmental health research for health professionals and community members. This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) does not allow appointed Scholars to lead an independent clinical trial but does allow them to obtain research experience in a clinical trial led by a mentor or co-mentor.
