Coordinating Center for the Breast Cancer and the Environment Research Program
The overarching goal of the Coordinating Center at the University of Wisconsin Carbone Cancer Center is to support
transdisciplinary scientific research to enhance our understanding of environmental and genetic factors underlying breast
cancer risk throughout the lifespan, with particular focus on the influence of environmental exposures during specific time
windows of susceptibility. The BCERP Coordinating Center integrates efforts across the network of individual Windows of
Susceptibility research projects with NIH program staff members, breast cancer advocates, community partners, and
external stakeholders to facilitate transdisciplinary research through collaboration, coordination, and communication.

This is a Centers for Disease Control (CDC) contracted project through the University of Utah that will use existing data on
private well contamination for arsenic and nitrates to develop a Land Use Regression model for estimating human
exposure to contaminants in private wells. Data can then be used by regulators and health officials in estimating human
health risks from well contamination.
