Administrative Core

ABSTRACT The Administrative Core will coordinate the administrative, fiscal, and organizational aspects of this P01 program. This is a complex and highly interactive program, involving investigators from several institutions, and including work in non-human primate models. To ensure success, the Program has been established with joint Principal Investigators, Drs. Paula Cannon (USC) and Hans-Peter Kiem (FHCC). Dr. Cannon will serve as the NIH primary contact and will oversee all financial interactions and sub-contracts. Both Dr. Cannon and Dr. Kiem will be assisted by local administrative support to facilitate the lines of communication between the co-PIs, and within the broader Program. The overall goals of the Administrative Core are: (1) To provide intellectual leadership and guidance for the scientific investigations and collaborations occurring within the Program Project; (2) To provide administrative, fiscal, and scientific review procedures to ensure that the P01 functions effectively; and (3) To facilitate communications and data dissemination between the P01 investigators.
