DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Pacific Northwest Agricultural Safety and Health (PNASH) Center, established in 1996, is part of a vital national infrastructure dedicated to the prevention of illness and injury among agricultural producers, workers, and their families. We work to achieve this goal through partnerships with key stakeholders in the Northwest region (Alaska, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington). We also work collaboratively with other regional centers to formulate national programs and policies in agricultural health and safety. Our Center is housed institutionally within the University of Washington's School of Public Health, the only such school in the four state region that we serve. Since the Center's inception, we have worked to engage the three major agricultural sectors in the Northwest: farming, forestry, and fishing. Our Center reflects a cross-disciplinary, multi-institutional, and geographically diverse set of initiatives. Our efforts focus primarily on populations not well represented in current research, including hired laborers, migrant/seasonal workers, women, and children. The primary goals of the PNASH Center are to:  Conduct high quality research through cohesive, coordinated and synergist activities;  Translate scientific discoveries into practical applications;  Exert a sustained and transformative influence on agricultural health and safety in our. region;  Translate and transfer our findings using accessible and appropriate methods to the farming, fishing and forestry agricultural sectors in the Pacific Northwest;  Provide opportunities for professional learning and development, including undergraduate and graduate students experiential learning, continuing education, investigator mentoring and academic exchange;  Engage our stakeholders in Center activities through active partnerships and collaborations.

描述（由申请人提供）：太平洋西北农业安全与健康 (PNASH) 中心成立于 1996 年，是致力于预防农业生产者、工人及其家庭疾病和伤害的重要国家基础设施的一部分。我们致力于通过与西北地区（阿拉斯加州、爱达荷州、俄勒冈州和华盛顿州）的主要利益相关者建立伙伴关系来实现这一目标。我们还与其他区域中心合作制定农业健康和安全方面的国家计划和政策。我们的中心设在华盛顿大学公共卫生学院内，这是我们服务的四个州地区唯一一所此类学校。自中心成立以来，我们一直致力于西北农业、林业、渔业三大农业领域的发展。我们的中心体现了跨学科、多机构和地域多样化的举措。我们的工作主要集中在当前研究中没有得到很好体现的人群，包括雇佣劳工、移民/季节性工人、妇女和儿童。 PNASH 中心的主要目标是： 通过有凝聚力、协调和协同的活动开展高质量的研究；将科学发现转化为实际应用；对我们的农业健康和安全产生持续和变革性的影响。地区;使用可行且适当的方法将我们的研究结果转化并转移到太平洋西北地区的农业、渔业和林业农业部门；提供专业学习和发展的机会，包括本科生和研究生的体验式学习、继续教育、研究者指导和学术交流；通过积极的伙伴关系和协作，让我们的利益相关者参与中心活动。
