RESTON, Va., July 25, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- ASRC Federal Data Solutions was awarded the Research Data Management and Reporting (RDMR) Support Services contract with the NIH's National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) Division of Translational Toxicology (DTT). With this five-year $90M award, the company will continue to generate, interpret and share environmental health research data to further understand how factors in the environment can impact public health.

Specifically, the team will develop automated data management pipelines for rapid data collection, curation and reporting. This work helps DTT share translatable, predictive and timely data with NIEHS scientists, government agencies and the public.

"Powering the important research conducted at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences is a privilege and great responsibility," said Jennifer Felix, president and CEO of ASRC Federal. "Our scientists and IT experts are honored to provide resources that support one of the world's leading medical research centers."
