DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant) This project continues the University of Iowa's multi-level International Training and Research Program in Occupational and Environmental Health (ITREOH) in an expanded number of developing democracies in Central and Eastern Europe. This program will build upon previous investments in research and training capacity at collaborating institutions in Slovenia, the Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary, and Slovakia, to further develop a network of centers of excellence in Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, Serbia, Macedonia, and Romania. The proposed program model is based on our previous experience in the region and takes advantage of new developments in information and communications technology. The primary capacity building activity will be (5-month) intermediate-term training of 25 early- and mid-career professionals at the University of Iowa. Cost-effective "short-term-equivalent" distance education training in environmental and occupational health will be provided to several hundred scientists and health professionals from throughout the region using real-time, internet-based web-conferencing technology. The core of this short-term distance training will be two 15-week Global Forums on environmental and occupational health held each year for the five year duration of the project. Centers of excellence will be developed and strengthened by the increased knowledge and skills of returning trainees, by 20-25 small collaborative research projects, by widespread participation in global forums, and by participating in and co-hosting an annual Network Institute meeting. The transition of trainees to positions of responsibility and influence will be facilitated by recognition of their expertise and leadership through organizing and conducting short courses/workshops at the annual ITREOH Network Institute, by support for participation in scientific meetings and conferences, and by publishing and presenting the results of ongoing research. Research results will be translated into public health practice through the above-mentioned short courses/workshops, the Network Institutes, and by the direct influence of the mid-career trainees in positions of responsibility within the countries of Central and Eastern Europe.

描述（由申请人提供） 该项目继续爱荷华大学的多层次国际培训和 在中欧和东欧的发展民主国家中，职业和环境健康（ITREOH）的研究计划。 该计划将基于在斯洛文尼亚，捷克共和国，波兰，匈牙利和斯洛伐克的合作机构的研究和培训能力的先前投资，以进一步在波斯尼亚 - 黑泽维纳，克罗地亚，塞尔维亚，塞尔维亚，马其顿和罗马尼亚州建立卓越中心网络。 拟议的计划模型基于我们以前在该地区的经验，并利用信息和通信技术方面的新发展。 主要的能力建设活动将是（5个月）爱荷华大学25名早期和中期专业人员的中期培训。 使用基于实时的，基于Internet的网络会议技术，将向来自整个地区的数百名科学家和卫生专业人员提供具有成本效益的“短期等效”远程教育培训。 这项短期远程培训的核心将是该项目五年期间每年举行的有关环境和职业健康的两个15周全球论坛。 通过20-25个小型合作研究项目，通过广泛参与全球论坛的知识和技能的提高知识和技能将通过增加的知识和技能来开发和加强卓越中心，并通过广泛参与全球论坛，并参加并共同参加了年度网络学院会议。 通过在年度ITREOH Network Institute组织和开展短期课程/研讨会，通过支持参与科学会议和会议，通过出版和介绍正在进行的研究结果，通过组织和开展短期课程/讲习班来确认他们的专业知识和领导才能，从而促进了学员向责任和影响力职位的过渡。 研究结果将通过上述短期课程/研讨会，网络机构以及中级学员在中欧和东欧国家内的责任位置的直接影响来转化为公共卫生实践。
