Providing Tools for Impactful Research

The HERCULES Exposome Research Center is home to two research support-focused cores, the Integrated Health Sciences Facility Core (IHSFC) and the Environmental Health Data Sciences Core (EHDSC), as well as the Community Engagement Core (CEC). Through these efforts, our researchers can access state-of-the-art laboratory resources, receive critical support for the design and implementation of their research, engage with an array of data scientists to develop and interpret their research projects, and identify and pursue opportunities with community partners.
