This Pan-American Advanced Studies Institutes (PASI) award, jointly supported by the NSF and the Department of Energy (DOE), will take place in July 1-10, 2013 at the School of Public Health at University of São Paulo (USP), Brazil. The principal investigator, Dr. Joan Rose (Michigan State University) will be joined on the organizing committee by scientists from the U.S., Brazil, Mexico, Panama, and Venezuela. This PASI will engage 25 post-doctoral scientists, advanced graduate students and junior scientists and engineers from a diverse set of fields including environmental engineering, microbiology, environmental science, epidemiology, environmental health, veterinary medicine, and emergency preparedness. Participants will gain hands-on experience with mathematical software and statistical approaches for addressing water pollution and control. Additionally, the participants will attend lectures from top scientists in the field of quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA), engage in specific exercises, and become familiar with probabilistic methodology.This PASI will build upon the World Health Organization's recent publication that recommended that QMRA be used to implement the water safety plans by engaging more scientists and engineers from across the globe to gain experience with QMRA. In addition, countries such as Brazil, Chile and Mexico are in a position to construct their water service systems implementing the new technologies that will be discussed and assessed in the institute. Global access to program materials will be created via a website and contributions to the QMRA wiki. Additionally, an environmental science and engineering career program will be developed to discuss post-doctoral scientists' pathways for engaging in water research, particularly in Central and South America.

这项由 NSF 和能源部 (DOE) 共同支持的泛美高级研究所 (PASI) 颁奖典礼将于 2013 年 7 月 1 日至 10 日在圣保罗大学 (USP) 公共卫生学院举行首席研究员 Joan Rose 博士（密歇根州立大学）将与来自美国、巴西、墨西哥、巴拿马和委内瑞拉的科学家一起加入该 PASI 的 25 名科学家。来自环境工程、微生物学、环境科学、流行病学、环境健康、兽医学和应急准备等不同领域的博士后科学家、高级研究生以及初级科学家和工程师将获得数学软件的实践经验。此外，参与者还将参加定量微生物风险评估 (QMRA) 领域顶尖科学家的讲座，进行具体练习，并熟悉概率方法。本 PASI 将建立在世界卫生组织最近的出版物建议通过吸引全球更多的科学家和工程师来利用 QMRA 来实施水安全计划。此外，巴西、智利和墨西哥等国家也有能力建设 QMRA。他们的水服务系统实施了将在研究所讨论和评估的新技术，将通过网站和 QMRA 维基百科提供全球访问权。此外，还将开发一个环境科学和工程职业计划来进行讨论。博士后科学家的从事途径水研究，特别是中美洲和南美洲的水研究。
