Project Summary / Abstract Research in climate and health is currently hampered because: (1) The Community of Practice (COP) in this space is fractured, frequently siloed within disciplines, and concentrated in a few well-resourced institutions and countries; (2) Cutting-edge data assets exist, but are often hard to find, inconsistently documented, and challenging to manage and link to other data resources; (3) Many researchers, especially early-stage investigators (ESIs), do not have access to compliant, computationally efficient, and secure computing environments; and (4) We lack a centralized platform that can support the domestic and global capacity-building initiatives needed to expand pathways for CCH researchers, including providing educational resources, mentoring, and funding for pilot and time-sensitive projects. We propose to create the BUSPH-HSPH-CAFÉ, a Research Coordinating Center (RCC) leveraging the ecosystem of state-of-the-art research, education, and policy translation in climate change and health (CCH) at the Boston University School of Public Health and the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health to: (1) CONVENE the community of practice (COP) via the Administrative Function; (2) ACCELERATE research via the Data Management Function; (3) FOSTER collaborations across the COP via the Resource Function; and (4) EXPAND the CCH- COP via the Capacity Building Function. Dr. Gregory Wellenius, Dr. Francesca Dominici, and Dr. Amruta Nori-Sarma are the ideal multiple-PI team for the CAFÉ based on: (1) their large and diverse network of collaborators, including top experts in the fields of climate change, adverse health outcomes, environmental epidemiology, data sciences, and statistics, (2) their prior experience leading high-impact research relevant to CCH; and (3) their commitment to capacity building through mentorship and support, particularly in support of diversity and inclusion. By engaging our partners in NGOs, government, industry, and community-based groups, and by leveraging the expertise of the PIs, the CAFÉ will enable the COP to more rapidly and effectively advance our understanding – and minimize the consequences – of the health consequences of continued climate change Research advances of the COP will be timely, policy-relevant, and catalytic, with far-reaching applications for improved local, national, and global climate resilience.

项目摘要 /摘要 目前在气候和健康方面的研究受到阻碍，因为：（1） 在这个空间中的练习（COP）被骨折，经常在学科中孤立，并集中 在一些资源丰富的机构和国家中； （2）存在尖端的数据资产，但 通常很难找到，不一致的记录和挑战以管理和链接到其他数据 资源; （3）许多研究人员，尤其是早期研究人员（ESI），没有 访问合规，计算效率和安全的计算环境； （4）我们 缺乏可以支持国内和全球能力建设计划的集中式平台 需要扩大CCH研究人员的途径，包括提供教育资源， 指导，以及用于飞行员和时间敏感项目的资金。 我们建议创建一个研究协调中心（RCC）的Busph-Hsph-Café 利用气候中最先进的研究，教育和政策翻译的生态系统 波士顿大学公共卫生学院和哈佛T.H.的变更与健康（CCH） Chan公共卫生学院致：（1）通过 行政功能； （2）通过数据管理功能加速研究； （3） 通过资源功能促进COP的协作； （4）扩展CCH- 通过能力建设功能进行COP。 Gregory Wellenius博士，Francesca Dominici博士和Amruta Nori-Sarma博士是理想的选择 基于以下咖啡馆的多个PI团队：（1）他们的大型和潜水员的合作者网络， 包括气候变化领域的高级专家，不利的健康成果，环境 流行病学，数据科学和统计学，（2）他们先前领导高影响力的经验 与CCH相关的研究； （3）他们通过Mentalship和 支持，特别是支持多样性和包容性。通过让我们的合作伙伴参与非政府组织， 政府，工业和社区团体，并利用PI的专业知识， 咖啡馆将使警察能够更迅速有效地提高我们的理解 - 并 最大程度地减少后果 - 持续气候变化研究的健康后果 COP的进步将及时，政策与催化，并具有深远的应用程序 改善本地，国家和全球气候弹性。
