 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application is prepared in response to RFA-ES-15-009: Children's Health Exposure Analysis Resource (CHEAR): National Exposure Assessment Laboratory Network (U2C), and, if funded, will be one of several CHEAR Hubs designed to provide exposure assessment marker measurements and biological response indicator measurements to epidemiological and clinical investigators. The ultimate goal of the RTI International CHEAR Hub is to develop a self-sustaining Hub that will maintain and develop state-of-the- art standardized methods and promote research, training, and education in assessment of exposure and response. The RTI CHEAR Hub will work within the CHEAR Network and with other CHEAR Hubs, the CHEAR Data Repository and Analysis Science Center (DRASC), and the CHEAR Coordinating Center (CC) to develop new methods; to refine existing methods to lower concentrations and new matrices; to provide guidance on study design, sample collection, and storage; and to provide services for targeted, untargeted, and biological response measurements. This proposal provides a description of the capabilities, experiences, and approaches that will be used in the Targeted Analysis Resource Core (TARC, Leader Keith Levine), the Untargeted Analysis Resource Core (UARC, Leader Susan Sumner), and the Biological Response Indicator Core (BRIC, Co-Leaders Robert Clark and Leslie Recio). Refinement of existing methods and the development of new analytical and biological approaches to assess the impact of environmental exposure will be conducted by the Development Core (DC, Leader Timothy Fennell). The Administrative Core will provide oversight for interactions with the CHEAR Program and will ensure that timelines, budgets, and staffing are appropriate for the studies to be performed. RTI has decades of experience in exposure assessment and has a history of conducting research in children's health. The RTI CHEAR Hub, directed by Dr. Timothy Fennell, is strengthened by the untargeted analysis capabilities of the NIH Eastern Regional Comprehensive Metabolomics Resource Core (RTI RCMRC, directed by Dr. Susan Sumner) and our partnership with Dr. Oliver Fiehn who directs the West Coast RCMRC at University of California at Davis and is experienced in conducting metabolomics for large cohort studies. Our partners at Integrated Laboratory Systems (Directed by Dr. Leslie Recio) bring additional in-depth strengths for the measurement of biological response indicators. The overall goal of the CHEAR Program will be to provide resources and services for use in epidemiological and clinical investigations to enable analysis of a wide range of biospecimens using state-of-the-art technologies to understand the influence of the environment on disease.

 描述（由申请人提供）：本申请是根据 RFA-ES-15-009 准备的：儿童健康暴露分析资源 (CHEEAR)：国家暴露评估实验室网络 (U2C)，如果获得资助，将成为其中之一CEAR 中心旨在为流行病学和临床研究人员提供暴露评估标记测量和生物反应指标测量。RTI 国际 CEAR 中心的最终目标是开发一个能够自我维持的中心。制定最先进的标准化方法，并促进暴露和反应评估方面的研究、培训和教育。 RTI CEAR 中心将在 CEAR 网络内并与其他 CEAR 中心、CEAR 数据存储库和分析科学中心合作。 (DRASC) 和 CHEAR 协调中心 (CC) 开发新方法；改进现有方法以降低浓度和新基质；为研究设计、样本收集和储存提供指导；和该提案描述了将在目标分析资源核心（TARC，领导 Keith Levine）、非目标分析资源核心（UARC，领导 Susan Sumner）和生物反应指标核心（金砖四国，联合领导人 Robert Clark 和 Leslie Recio） 开发核心（DC，领导人 Timothy）将改进现有方法并开发新的分析和生物方法，以评估环境暴露的影响。管理核心将为与 CEAR 计划的互动提供监督，并确保时间表、预算和人员配备适合要进行的研究。RTI 在暴露评估方面拥有数十年的经验，并且拥有开展研究的历史。由 Timothy Fennell 博士领导的 RTI CEAR 中心通过 NIH 东部地区综合代谢组学资源核心 (RTI RCMRC，由 Susan 博士领导) 的非针对性分析能力得到加强。 Sumner）以及我们与加州大学戴维斯分校西海岸 RCMRC 负责人 Oliver Fiehn 博士的合作伙伴关系，他在进行大型队列研究代谢组学方面拥有丰富的经验，我们在 Integrated Laboratory Systems（由 Leslie Recio 博士指导）的合作伙伴带来了更多的帮助。 - 测量生物反应指标的深度优势 CEAR 计划的总体目标是提供用于流行病学和临床调查的资源和服务，以便利用最先进的技术分析各种生物样本。了解环境对疾病的影响。
