(DOE) regarding the direction HHS should take in establishing a 
research agenda, development of a research plan, and the respective 
roles of HHS and DOE in energy-related health research.
    Nominations are being sought for the fields of energy-related 
epidemiologic research and public health, including occupational and 
environmental health; representatives of public interest groups; and

residents). Federal Employees will not be considered for membership. 
Members may be invited to serve a one, two, three, or four-year term. 
Close attention will be given to minority and female representation; 
therefore, nominations from these groups are encouraged.
