Administrative Core

Project Summary - Admin Core Since the inception of CViSB in 2018, we have built a highly effective administrative structure that is focused on facilitating communication, collaboration, coordination, outreach, planning, data sharing, and scientific and fiscal oversight of the component research projects of CViSB. Through the Admin Core we will oversee all the goals of the Center and ensure their successful, cost-effective, and timely completion. Staffing will be organized via our Management and Staffing Plan and outreach activities will be organized via our Outreach Activities Plan, including organizing our annual CViSB Systems Biology Workshop. The Admin Core will also organize the first Kick-Off Meeting and Annual Programmatic Meetings and fund travel and stay for CViSB members. The Admin Core will continue to coordinate and schedule biweekly Zoom conference meetings among Center sites, and will assist PIs in the preparation of progress reports, internal compliance filings, and manuscripts. The Admin Core will be responsible for the following Specific Aims: (1) Provide an effective administrative and leadership structure of CViSB. (2) Organize outreach activities via our Outreach Activities Plan for the broader scientific community promoting systems biology approaches for infectious disease research. (3) Provide effective and responsive lines of communication between CViSB members, NIAID, other SysBio Centers and the broader scientific community (4) Facilitate rapid and open source sharing of data and research resources generated by CViSB (5) Engagement and leadership in cross-center SysBio Program activities.
