Developed by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, 
this website provides access to quality educational resources that deal 
with this timely topic. As one might expect, the site is divided into 
three primary sections: students, teachers, and scientists. With this 
rock-solid triumvirate, visitors can peruse these sections for specific 
materials that will be of use for their own specific purposes. In the 
students section, visitors can find links that will assist them with 
their assignments, and also learn from a number of interactive 
activities that deal with topics such as food safety, public health, and 
water pollution. Educators will breathe a sigh of relief when they get 
to the Teachers section, as it is easy to navigate, and it contains over 
sixty separate pieces of curricular material, all arranged by subject 
area (such as cancer or assays).
