Project Summary This administrative supplement request will fund a summer research internship for one high school student to receive training in environmental health science and participate in a community-engaged Research to Action project funded by the NIEHS. The activities proposed for the internship program directly work towards research objectives of the parent R01 grant and comprise an environmental health science (EHS) training program tailored to high school students and a “self-contained” project that the student can see from start to finish over the summer. This design is important as it will allow the student to have a sense of ownership of their project, allowing them to understand the basic concepts underlying a community engaged EHS investigation. Thus, the goal of this request is to encourage a promising student to pursue future education and research opportunities. The student will first, learn basic principles and concepts in environmental health science and related disciplines and participate in research activities of the parent grant in the summer; and second, pilot use of a citizen science tool in their community, which is the study site of the parent grant, collect related environmental sampling data, and develop protocols on data collection and translational sharing. These activities will make a direct and significant contribution to the objectives of the parent grant, by quickening the pace of developing the citizen science component and initiating the testing and field deployment of the citizen science tool early in year 2 of the parent project. The proposed internship program will serve as one of the major engagement activities to advance the parent grant’s efforts in building a collaboration with the local high school and bridge the efforts promoting community engagement through citizen science and developing a high school environmental health science program. This internship opportunity will enable the student to devote full-time effort (40 hours/week) for eight weeks towards learning and conducting research activities, fostering the student’s EHS literacy and a passion for engaging in EHS research. The student is expected to discuss the project results as an oral or poster presentation at their school, a research team meeting (including community partners), and at a scientific conference.

项目概要 该行政补充申请将为一名高中生的暑期研究实习提供资金 接受环境健康科学培训并参加社区参与的研究行动 该项目由 NIEHS 资助，为实习计划提出的活动直接致力于研究。 母公司 R01 拨款的目标，包括环境健康科学 (EHS) 培训计划 为高中生量身定制，是一个学生可以从头到尾看到的“独立”项目 这个设计很重要，因为它会让学生对他们的项目有一种主人翁意识， 让他们了解社区参与 EHS 调查的基本概念。 此请求的目的是鼓励有前途的学生追求未来的教育和研究机会。 学生将首先学习环境健康科学及相关的基本原理和概念 二是试点利用暑期家长资助的学科和研究活动； 社区中的公民科学工具，即家长资助的研究地点，收集相关环境 采样数据，并制定数据收集和翻译共享协议。 通过加快发展步伐，对母基金的目标做出直接和重大的贡献 公民科学部分，并尽早启动公民科学工具的测试和现场部署 拟议的实习计划将作为母项目第二年的主要活动之一。 开展活动，推进家长补助金与当地高中和桥梁建立合作的努力 通过公民科学努力促进社区参与和发展高中 该实习机会将使学生能够全职投入环境健康科学项目。 八周的努力（每周 40 小时）学习和开展研究活动，培养 学生的 EHS 素养和参与 EHS 研究的热情。 项目结果以口头或海报形式在学校、研究团队会议（包括社区 合作伙伴），以及在科学会议上。
