		Funded originally in 2002, we are one of the newer centers in the nationwide PRC program-- but we are growing rapidly.
		The Nationwide PRC program is a network of academic centers, public health agencies, and community partners conducting applied research and practice in chronic disease prevention and control.
		Funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) since 1986, there are now 33 centers around the nation based in schools of public health or medicine.

	United States Department of Energy National Laboratories - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Most of the DOE national laboratories are actually federally funded research and development centers administered, managed, operated and staffed by private corporations and academic universities under contract to DOE.
		Additional success was had at the University of Chicago in reactor research, and at other academic institutions spread across the country.
		Each national laboratory would generally be centered around one or many expensive machines (such as particle accelerators or nuclear reactors).

	Summary of Findings From a Pollution Prevention Workshop on Mining (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		The goal of the WREAFS workshop held on April 1-2, 1992 in Albany, Oregon at the Albany Research Center was to introduce key pollution prevention concepts to the BOM health and safety officers.
		In order for researchers to understand raw material and disposal costs, the health and safety officers should establish a charge-back system which require each researcher to be responsible for the full costs involved in their projects.
		Researchers may be reluctant to accept materials from waste exchanges to use as feedstocks because of the potential for contamination (i.e., a chemical may not be as pure as claimed) and would destroy their process.

	Los Alamos National Laboratory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The laboratory was founded during World War II as a secret, centralized facility to coordinate the scientific research of the Manhattan Project, the Allied project to develop the first nuclear weapons.
		At the end of the Cold War, both labs went through a process of intense scientific diversification in their research programs to adapt to the changing political conditions which no longer required as much research towards developing new nuclear weapons.
		JGI was founded in 1997 to unite the expertise and resources in genome mapping, DNA sequencing, technology development, and information sciences pioneered at the three genome centers at UC's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), and LANL.

		George Dooley, director of the Albany Research Center, and Geoff Brown of the Department of Environmental Quality spoke to the Albany School Board on Monday, updating their work at the school so far.
		The research center is aware that the chemical is also present in groundwater some 20 to 30 feet below both Liberty and the research center, which is across the street from the school.
		Albany school officials are stressing that drinking water at the schools comes from the city's system, not groundwater, and is not contaminated with TCE.
