The NIEHS-funded T32 training program in environmental health sciences hosted by the Department of Pharmacology & Toxicology was awarded $2.31M in funding for five additional years effective July 1, 2016.  The training program provides cutting edge basic, clinical, computational, and population-based research and incorporates interdisciplinary and integrated approaches to environmental health sciences. The training program supports six pre-doctoral and three post-doctoral trainees and interfaces exceptionally well with the the strategic plans of NIEHS and the University of Louisville. Led by Professor David Hein as Principal Investigator/Program Director and Dr. Russell Prough as Co-Investigator/Co-Director for years 2004-2016, the proposal for renewal funding for 2016-2021 was led by Professor Gavin Arteel as Principal Investigator/Program Director and Professors Aruni Bhatnagar, Matthew Cave, and David Hein as Co-investigators/Co-Directors.
