The Extramural Grants Administration Program works to further the efforts of the Health Research Science Board (HRSB). The HRSB’s mission, since 1996, has been to support innovative breast cancer scientific research and education projects within New York State. The HRSB also considers requests for the release of confidential pesticide information for specific health-related research projects from the Pesticide Sales and Use Database, maintained by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) in conjunction with Cornell University.
