Program Description:
For the past three years, the Berkeley Center for Environmental Public Health Tracking has been engaged in multiple activities designed to assist CDC and partner health departments in building this network. They will continue our work with overall goal of supporting increased capacity for EPHT by developing methods and analyses that can contribute to better ability of both technical and non-technical audiences to understand relationships among environmental factors (hazards), exposures, and health outcomes and to act on this knowledge to protect health at the national, regional, and community levels.
