SSRs will principally focus on NCER's research support programs like the Science to Achieve Results (STAR) research grants and centers, STAR fellowships, Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contracts, and other grants funded by NCER, and in some instances will include other research as supported by the Office of Research and Development (ORD) or reported in the general literature. Tasks include 1) Conduct literature reviews to serve as stand alone documents or as support for another SSR; 2) Review and interpret research results from the support programs mentioned above; 3) Compile results into draft research summaries; 4) Technically edit final drafts of research summaries; 4) Author information releases of environmental research findings for general public consumption; 5) Organize results in a format that permits easy transference of data to the NCER-maintained internet site; 6) Conduct scientific workshops on selected research topics; and 7) Procure the advice and expert review by independent non-government researchers from human health and ecological disciplines as well as engineering, social, economic academic fields of study.
