## Abstract

ABSTRACT: CORE D
The overall objective of the Research Translation Core (Core D) is to oversee and execute the integration,
dissemination and transfer of the scientific accomplishments emanating from the UC Davis Superfund
Research Program (SRP) Center. The NIEHS SRP was created to address the need for innovative strategies
and technologies to provide solutions to Superfund-related issues. As such, Core D will liaise between
researchers within the UC Davis SRP and other National SRP Centers, as well as with the outside community,
including other scientists, legislators and community partners to bridge the gap between the applied solutions
needed for remediation of hazardous chemicals and the basic research performed in support of reducing the
amount and toxicity of hazardous substances. Because progress toward solutions can be stunted without
appropriate research translation tools and bi-directional partnerships to help shape and direct these tools, Core
D will collaborate with all projects and cores to ensure that research products emanating from the UC Davis
SRP are effectively transferred to and used by the appropriate end users. This will be achieved through
communication within and external to the Center, building partnerships with government agencies, technology
transfer, and the dissemination of relevant information to other end-users in a context applicable to the target
audience. The expected outcome of the Core's activities is to facilitate the translation of UC Davis SRP
technologies and research outcomes by involving relevant entities (e.g., intellectual property management,
regulatory agencies, and partners) and assuring timely use of research products, which will ultimately help with
the overall goal of NIEHS to protect human health from hazardous chemicals. This process starts with
discovery, involves policy and ends with benefits to human populations and their environment. To achieve
these overarching goals, the specific aims of the Research Translation Core are to I) translate research
products to improve public and environmental health; II) communicate information about research products to
relevant audiences and end-users within UC Davis, other SRP Centers, local, state and federal government,
industry and the general public; and III) expand policy and community partnerships with local, state and federal
government and regulatory agencies charged with protecting human health. To achieve these goals, the
Research Translation Core will assure consistent communication with all projects and cores, build an advisory
committee to help with all aspects of research translation, utilize several forms of media to translate UCD SRC
research to appropriate end users, and host meetings to facilitate bi-directional communication and
transdisciplinary research with external partners.
