Administrative Core

Project summary The Asia-Pacific ICEMR relies on a highly effective administrative center, based at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute (WEHI) in Melbourne, Australia to promote and maintain the between field, laboratory research and data management centers. Our extensive experience from previous ICEMR programs has resulted in a very efficient and well-supported admin management structure embedded within Prof Mueller’s laboratory at WEHI and leverages the strong scientific support network across our research grants, finance and legal departments. Our project, with intersecting activities proposed between the Projects and Cores, is integrative by design. The two Projects, Epidemiology and Transmission are supported by a network of collaborations across institutions and strongly supported by the two scientific Cores: Data Management, Statistical support and Modelling; and Diagnostics and Surveillance. The admin core exists to facilitate coordination of all project activities, data and scientific resource sharing, contractual and ethical documentation, and all financial management across every aspect of the project. We will be the contact point for all communications with NIH and other ICEMR teams and strive to enable interactive collaboration with the other ICEMRs. We are responsible for all reporting and will ensure timely communications with NIH officials and SAG members.
