SUMMARY:PFAS: Looking Foward: NASEM Recommendations to Improve Public Health
DESCRIPTION:The NASEM report’s recommendations that include public health surveillance\, as well as the critical need to educate health providers on environmental exposures and associated health effects will be discussed. \nDr. Laura Anderko is an environmental health nurse consultant and co-director of the Federal Region 3 Pediatric Environmental Health Specialty Unit (PEHSU) of Mid-Atlantic Center for Children’s Health and the Environment at the M. Louise Fitzpatrick College of Nursing\, Villanova University. She has consulted with health providers and communities about potential health effects and risk reduction strategies for PFAS. She was a co-author for the recent National Academies of Sciences\, Engineering and Medicine (NASEM) report\, Guidance on PFAS Exposure\, Testing\, and Clinical Follow-up (2022) \nECHO PFAS Series \nThis series is based on Project ECHO (Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes) strategies. It is an innovative tele-mentoring program designed to create virtual communities of learners by bringing together healthcare providers and subject matter experts using videoconference technology\, brief lecture presentations\, and case-based learning\, fostering an “all learn\, all teach” approach. \nParticipants are engaged in the bi-directional virtual knowledge network by sharing clinical challenges and learning from experts and peers. \nDuring an ECHO session\, participants present real (anonymized) cases to the specialists—and each other—for discussion and recommendations. Participants learn from one another\, as knowledge is tested and refined through a local lens. \nEach participant will earn one CE for attending each session. There is no cost for participating in any of the sessions.

SUMMARY:Climate Change\, Disruption\, and Health Equity
DESCRIPTION:As climate-related disasters\, such as floods\, droughts\, and extreme temperatures become more common\, humans are being exposed to unique combinations of health hazards and stressors\, which are often inequitably distributed across the population. A panel of experts will discuss how climate change and climate disasters impact health outcomes for different populations and exacerbates health inequities\, their impact on health systems\, and how we can better prepare for and mitigate the health impacts of a changing climate. \nCo-sponsored with the Kleinman Center for Energy Policy and part of Energy Week at Penn. \nSupported by the Charles C. Leighton\, MD Memorial Lecture Fund.

SUMMARY:ECHO–NIH Workshop
DESCRIPTION:This two-day\, virtual workshop focuses on identifying best practices for large-sample studies of pregnancy and childhood to ethically and feasibly return individual research results to participants. \nCrosscutting Themes: \n\nWhat principles drive return of individual results to pregnant people and children?  What are examples of best practices and how can we evaluate their effectiveness?\nHow should recommendations differ for returning individual results to pregnant people and children versus those of other adults?\nMost research on returning individual results focuses on genetics results; how can we broaden to include environmental data from bioassays\, physical measures\, and self-reports?\nHow can the workshop guide facilitation of equity in return of individual results?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVIRTUAL WORKSHOP DATE & TIME \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThursday\, March 16\, 2023\n9:00 AM to 4:20 PM (ET) \nFriday\, March 17\, 2023\n9:00 AM to 12:20 PM (ET)

SUMMARY:Deadline: Environmental Innovations Initiative Call for Proposals
DESCRIPTION:Funding opportunity for the University of Pennsylvania community only\nA Research Community consists of an interdisciplinary group engaged in studying a common theme of broad environmental significance in one of three defined tracks: Stewardship of Nature\, Climate Action\, and Societal Resilience. Each one must include at least one public-facing outcome and offer opportunities for students to get involved. The call for proposals for AY 23-24 opens on February 14 and closes on March 15. Up to four communities will be awarded up to $25\,000 in April. \nThe tracks defined for this opportunity are listed below\, including a list of key concepts associated with each track. \n\nStewardship of Nature: preservation\, restoration\, valuation\, habitat\, biodiversity\, ecology\, nature-based solutions\nClimate Action: decarbonization\, mitigation\, adaptation\, sequestration\, migration\, science-based targets\nSocietal Resilience: human vitality (health\, wellness\, justice)\, ecological health\, economic prosperity\, responsible consumption (extraction\, production\, pollution\, disposal)\, disruption preparedness\n\nApplications must be faculty-led and multidisciplinary. There must be a clear role for students\, and staff members and external partners may also be included. This is a one-year opportunity with the possibility of renewal for up to three years.  Successful applications will engage multiple disciplines and have cultural\, social\, and political dimensions that open up the possibility for on-going interdisciplinary engagement. The scope of impact can range from local to global. \nRead more
