 OVERVIEW
The Environmental Medicine Rotation Program (EMRP) is a collaborative effort with the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC), the Association of Minority Health Professions Schools (AMHPS), and the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR).
The program exposes second year medical residents, and Environmental Health graduate students (including Industrial Hygiene, Environmental Engineering, Epidemiology and Toxicology) to an onsite one to three month rotational assignment at ATSDR.
Graduate students and residents from the occupational, preventive, internal medicine and emergency medicine departments of their respective institutions are introduced to environmental hazards and health issues and the influence these issues will play when residents are in clinical and/or private practice.
