This award funds the Administrative Core of the Southern California Superfund Research and Training Program focused on PFAS contamination and remediation. It supports leadership, collaboration, and research translation to address PFAS issues in contaminated water supplies.
Description
The Administrative Core (AC) supports the mission, scientific vision, and objectives of the Southern California Superfund Research and Training Program for PFAS Assessment, Remediation, and Prevention Center (ShARP). The goal is to develop a problem-based, solution-oriented PFAS research and training program applicable to contaminated water supplies from Superfund sites and other sources across the US. The AC provides leadership and administrative support to promote scientific collaboration and coordinate research translation across four Research Projects and four cross-cutting Cores. It is led by the ShARP director, two deputy directors (including the Research Translation Coordinator), and the AC coordinator.
