      • In 2019 the Human Health Exposure Analysis Resource (HHEAR) Data Center at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai was established by NIEHS as a continuation of the CHEAR Data Center expanding to include health outcomes at all ages. The goal is to provide the research community access to statistical analyses and to make that data publicly available as a means to improve our knowledge of the comprehensive effects of environmental exposures on human health throughout the life course. The HHEAR Data Center goals are to catalyze new scientific insight from the colocation, integration and advanced statistical and data science analysis of multimodal data sets. It provides a data repository for storing epidemiologic and biomarker data for CHEAR and HHEAR research studies, publicly available deidentified datasets downloadable for external users, and a publicly accessible HHEAR ontology that provides a common vocabulary with unambiguous definitions of concepts and variables across studies to allow for pooling of studies.

      These papers document Michael Caldwell's role in the Student Council of the Mount Sinai School of Medicine (1988-90) as well as his role as the Mount Sinai representative to the Organization of Student Representatives (OSR) of the American Association of Medical Colleges (1987-90). While serving on the Council, Caldwell spearheaded a movement to ensure that Mount Sinai became a smoke free environment. The Council passed a resolution, and Caldwell gathered information on making hospitals smoke free. He spoke to the Medical Board and was appointed to an institutional task force to make changes in this area.
      These papers provide insights into the concerns of students during this time, as well as Caldwell's own interests in public health. The minutes from the Student Council have been removed to series.
