Research in Progress: FY 1986. Summaries of projects sponsored by the Office of Health and Environmental Research
This report provides a compilation of summaries of the research projects supported by the Office of Health and Environmental Research (OHER) during Fiscal Year 1986. OHER conducts a basic and applied program in areas of health and environmental science in which the Department of Energy has responsibilities or unique capabilities. The Department sponsors a comprehensive program which includes the study of atmospheric, marine and terrestrial process; molecular and subcellular mechanisms underlying human somatic and genetic processes and their responses to environmental toxicants; and epidemiology. Programs range from fundamental studies in structural biology; through the development of advanced instrumentation for cell biology, neurobiology and radiobiology; to the creation of an entire field - nuclear medicine - which has had a profound impact on human health.
