The Integrated Health Sciences Facility Core (IHSFC) supports the theme of the UNC Center for Environmental Health and Susceptibility (CEHS): translating interdisciplinary research on environmental susceptibility to improve public health in North Carolina as highlighted by its four aims: The IHSFC provides scientific consultation and project management support for new and existing clinical and translational human subjects’ studies in Environmental Cancer, Cardiopulmonary Disease, and Developmental Disease (Aim 1). The IHSFC supports state of the art collection, processing, analysis, and storage of biospecimens (Aim 2). The IHFSC facilitates access to existing collaborative human studies by establishing a network of environmental health research study resources for established environmental health scientists and junior investigators and also supports new human study development (Aim 3). The IHSFC functions in an integrative capacity with the Molecular Analysis and Statistical Support Facility Core (MASS) and Community Engagement Core (CEC) to support existing research, novel pilot projects, community engagement, and grant applications (Aim 4). The IHSFC achieves these aims through two subcores: the UNC Biospecimen Processing Laboratory (BSP), which supports biospecimen handling and storage, develops new protocols and optimizes quality assurance; and the Population Engagement Research Collaboration unit (PERC), which provides full service human studies support from IRB applications and protocol development to rapid case ascertainment through the NC Central Cancer Registry and hospital-based recruitment. The IHSFC contributes to the overall mission of the UNC CEHS by providing consolidated and cost-effective translational research support for Center members.

综合健康科学设施核心（IHSFC）支持北卡罗来纳大学环境中心的主题 健康与易感性（CEHS）：将环境易感性的跨学科研究转化为 改善北卡罗来纳州的公共卫生，其四个目标强调了这一点： IHSFC 提供科学的 为新的和现有的临床和转化人类受试者提供咨询和项目管理支持 环境癌症、心肺疾病和发育疾病的研究（目标 1）。 支持最先进的生物样本收集、处理、分析和存储（目标 2）。 通过建立环境健康网络，促进现有的人类合作研究 为知名环境健康科学家和初级研究人员提供的研究资源，以及 支持新的人类研究发展（目标 3）。 分子分析和统计支持设施核心 (MASS) 和社区参与核心 (CEC) 支持现有研究、新颖的试点项目、社区参与和拨款申请（目标 4）。 IHSFC 通过两个子核心实现这些目标：北卡罗来纳大学生物样本处理实验室 (BSP)，该实验室 支持生物样本处理和储存，开发新协议并优化质量保证； 人口参与研究合作单位 (PERC)，提供全方位的人类研究支持服务 从 IRB 应用和方案开发到通过北卡罗来纳州中心癌症中心快速查明病例 IHSFC 通过以下方式为 UNC CEHS 的总体使命做出贡献。 为中心成员提供综合且具有成本效益的转化研究支持。
