About this opportunity

The goal of the Micro/Nanoplastics (M/NPs) Research and Resource Coordination Center initiative is to establish a robust center that will coordinate and advance multidisciplinary efforts among biomedical and material science researchers to gain a comprehensive understanding of the health effects of M/NPs. This coordination center will accelerate the development and dissemination of sampling and analytical standardization, data harmonization, and distribution of experimental standards across the field of M/NPs research. The established coordination center will provide leadership and guidance that fosters collaboration across the M/NPs research community and promotes best practices that enhance the reliability and validity of research findings in this area. NIEHS will provide support (U24) to an eligible institution to launch a new coordination center to address the above-mentioned goals.
