COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT CORE The CEC will serve as a connector between communities and CHARMED faculty to develop responsive, science-based, environmental health and translational solutions to community-identified needs. The CEC will serve as the conduit for community engagement that creates synergy between all CHARMED investigators and communities to fulfill a shared mission of reducing community-identified environmental health concerns. The CEC will build upon existing partnerships in the Maryland region (DelMarVa, Washington D.C., and southern Pennsylvania) focused on community, social, and environmental determinants of health. Community concerns include historical and ongoing challenges with air, water, and soil quality, solid and hazardous waste management, aging infrastructure, transportation, energy infrastructure, goods movement, and land use and development. The CHARMED CEC will help train the next generation of leaders to conduct responsive, science-based environmental health CEnR ; increase faculty capacity to understand and conduct translational CEnR ; sustain existing and newly established, multi-directional CEnR partnerships; deliver educational and translational materials that improve environmental health literacy among community and stakeholder groups; and co-generate knowledge that can reduce community environmental exposures and ultimately improve community health outcomes.

Pilot Projects Who is it for? The Career Development Program offers professional development to: Early stage investigators in environmental health sciences Established researchers new to environmental health sciences How does it work? The program facilitates new scientific knowledge, technical capabilities and inter- and trans-disciplinary research groups. The program offers researchers: Mentoring Environmental Health Sciences Scholar Program Best Practices in Research Program Management and Leadership Monthly Aims Review Meeting Its goal is to develop an environmental health sciences workforce that can solve future environmental health problems. Check our events listing for upcoming meetings. What does the program offer? Aims Review Our monthly Aims Review helps investigators prepare to submit intramural or extramural research proposals by assigning a senior scientist or scientists to review the project's Specific Aims. These reviews happen regularly on the second Monday of each month from 12:00 PM—1:30 PM on Zoom. See our events calendar for details. Environmental Health Sciences Scholars Each year, the UC Davis Environmental Health Sciences Center recognizes an up-and-coming researcher who shows exceptional talent and promise in their field of study. Read about the Environmental Health Science Scholar Award and UC Davis researchers who've earned this distinction so far: Allison Ehrlich, PhD (2023) Jasquelin Peña, PhD (2022) Randy Carney, PhD (2020) Hong Ji, PhD (2019) Rebecca Calisi Rodriquez, PhD (2017) Melanie Gareau, PhD (2016) Michele LaMerrill, PhD (2015) UC Davis School of Medicine Environmental Health Sciences Fellowship The UC Davis School of Medicine Environmental Health Sciences Fellowship is a unique opportunity for promising junior to mid-career faculty at the UC Davis School of Medicine (SOM) that can accelerate their career development as independent, multi-disciplinary researchers and academic leaders. Our Center established this fellowship with the SOM as one of its major strategic initiatives to recruit investigators new to EHS who bring expertise, innovative approaches and technology that can expand research to create new opportunities for growing a cadre of environmental health researchers at UCD. Our inaugural SOM Fellows are: Dr. Sanchita Bhatnagar and Dr. Shaina Willen (2022-2024) Best Practices in Research Program Management This program runs over the course of the academic year with sign-ups usually happening at the beginning of the Fall term. If you're interested in participating in the next one, contact one of the Career Development Program Co-directors. Questions?
