项目摘要

TRANSLATIONAL CORE - ABSTRACT The Translational Core (TC) will be the primary focus of the Center and support scientists, community members, and healthcare providers in generating and disseminating critical research findings in children's environmental health to raise awareness of exposure risks and encourage meaningful actions for risk mitigation, equitably across communities. The TC addresses the historical challenges of bridging the gap of the generation of new scientific knowledge into high-impact messages that promote and sustain long-lasting change among individuals, families, healthcare providers. Building on the scientific knowledge being generated by Emory researchers specifically on the environmental health issues of inner city AA families and young children, the TC will focus on accelerating the translation of these findings to public health and clinical practice with a primary focus on underserved communities in the Atlanta area who may be inadvertently subject to environmental injustice. To maximize the public health impact of our translational efforts, the TC will 1) leverage the storytelling power of virtual reality (VR), 2) harness the ability of communication platforms to socially connect users across physical distances, and 3) design messages with environmental health literacy practices in mind so that the communication is clearly understandable and accessible to target audiences. This effort will be led by Dr. Sun Joo Ahn, TC Lead and director of the Games and Virtual Environments Lab at the University of Georgia, where she specializes in designing and evaluating interactive media messages to promote health behaviors. She will be joined by Dr. Ruth Parker, a leading national expert on research, education, and policy efforts to advance our nation's health literacy. The TC will be advised by the Community Cabinet of the Administrative Core, including Dr. Na'Taki Osborne Jelks of Spelman University, a nationally- recognized leader in engaging urban communities and youth in environmental stewardship. This translational team will also collaborate with the Region 4 Pediatric Environmental Health Specialty Units and the substantial engagement with Atlanta communities and health providers to further the aims of this core. With this expertise in environmental health, communication science, health literacy, and community engagement, the TC will work closely with CEH researchers to develop innovative and efficacious communication strategies to support and expand the capacity of individuals and communities to apply critical CEH findings in their lives.

翻译核心 - 摘要转化核心（TC）将是该中心的主要关注点，并支持科学家、社区会员和医疗保健提供者在儿童疾病方面产生和传播重要的研究成果环境健康，以提高对暴露风险的认识并鼓励针对风险采取有意义的行动各个社区之间公平地进行缓解。 TC 解决了弥合差距的历史挑战将新的科学知识转化为具有高影响力的信息，以促进和维持持久个人、家庭、医疗保健提供者之间的变化。以正在产生的科学知识为基础由埃默里大学研究人员专门针对内城 AA 家庭和年轻人的环境健康问题儿童，TC 将重点加速将这些发现转化为公共卫生和临床实践主要关注亚特兰大地区服务不足的社区，他们可能会无意中受到环境不公正。为了最大限度地提高我们的转化工作对公共卫生的影响，TC 将 1) 利用虚拟现实 (VR) 的讲故事能力，2) 利用通信平台的能力跨越物理距离将用户联系起来，3) 设计具有环境健康素养的信息牢记实践，以便目标受众能够清楚地理解和理解沟通内容。这该工作将由 TC 负责人兼游戏和虚拟环境实验室主任 Sun Joo Ahn 博士领导佐治亚大学，她专门设计和评估交互式媒体信息促进健康行为。国家级研究专家露丝·帕克 (Ruth Parker) 博士将与她一起，教育和政策努力，以提高我们国家的健康素养。 TC 将收到社区的建议行政核心内阁，包括斯佩尔曼大学的 Na'Taki Osborne Jelks 博士，该大学是一所国家级大学让城市社区和青年参与环境管理的公认领导者。这个翻译团队还将与第 4 区儿科环境健康专业单位和实质性机构合作与亚特兰大社区和卫生服务提供者合作，以进一步实现这一核心目标。凭借这些专业知识在环境健康、传播科学、健康素养和社区参与方面，TC 将开展工作与 CEH 研究人员密切合作，制定创新且有效的沟通策略，以支持和扩大个人和社区在生活中应用 CEH 重要发现的能力。
