The central purpose of the Dartmouth College SRP Training Core is to provide mentoring and training to graduate students and postdoctoral fellows in research topics of fundamental interest to the Dartmouth SRP, and to prepare the next generation of scientists in environmental health sciences. Dartmouth has a long-standing commitment to research and teaching in environmental and biomedical science. The Dartmouth SRP builds on this foundation by providing training opportunities that cross traditional fields of study. The Training Core contends that multi-disciplinary and interdisciplinary research is more challenging and requires more rigor than single-disciplinary study, but that ultimately is a stronger driver of innovation, and is critical for solving complex public health problems. As such, the Core recruits highly-qualified graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, and provides teaching and mentoring opportunities for them to achieve their career goals.
