The mission of the Southwest Environmental Health Sciences Center (SWEHSC) is to facilitate and implement innovative research aimed at understanding the mechanisms underlying environmental health science risks and disease among people living in arid environments experiencing climate change. The SWEHSC (P30 ES006694) is funded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences.
