In November 2004 the Wake Forest University OAIC was awarded a competitive supplement to provide coordinating functions on behalf of the OAIC program. The supplement was renewed in September 2006, and we seek to continue and expand our functions with this renewal. On behalf of the entire OAIC program, the Coordinating Center Core (CCC) at the Wake Forest University OAIC will execute the following specific aims: 1. Provide administrative / logistical support for the OAIC program 2. Enhance the OAIC website (www.peppercenter.org) as an administrative tool for the OAIC program and develop the site to serve as an interface with the lay public, a resource for researchers in aging and related areas, and a forum for scientific exchange among OAIC investigators across sites 3. Work with NIA staff and OAIC Directors to develop and implement shared resources, and facilitate the sharing of scientific resources with other NIA/NIH center programs and with the broader scientific community 4. Provide logistical and educational support for OAIC trainees 5. Enhance the OAIC career development programs and coordinate related programs of career development sponsored by organizations committed to clinical and translational research in aging 6. Develop and pilot an OAIC Research Network to foster communications, cooperative arrangements, and collaborative projects among OAIC sites and between OAlCs and other institutional research centers, NIA- or NIH-funded research infrastructures, and other Federal or private organizations promoting geriatrics training and/or research 7. Evaluate and improve all Coordinating Center functions and activities As part of the renewal we plan to lead two major programmatic initiatives: 1) enhanced OAIC junior faculty development through: i) the coordination of the OAIC faculty development activities with other junior faculty development programs in aging, and ii) increased cross-center interactions using internet technology and a Visiting Professorship Mentoring Program; and 2) enhanced potential of the OAIC program to function as a research network through: i) the appointment of an OAIC Research Network Advisory Committee, ii) development of a web-based infrastructure for multi-institutional studies, and iii) the conduct of one or two small pilot studies to determine the feasibility and cost estimates for developing such a network.

2004 年 11 月，维克森林大学 OAIC 获得了竞争性补充，以提供 代表 OAIC 计划协调职能。该增补于 2006 年 9 月更新， 我们力求通过此次更新继续并扩大我们的职能。 维克森林大学核心协调中心 (CCC) 代表整个 OAIC 项目 OAIC将实现以下具体目标： 1. 为OAIC项目提供行政/后勤支持 2. 增强 OAIC 网站 (www.peppercenter.org) 作为 OAIC 计划的管理工具 并开发该网站作为与普通公众的接口，为老龄化研究人员提供资源 及相关领域，以及 OAIC 跨站点研究人员之间进行科学交流的论坛 3. 与 NIA 工作人员和 OAIC 董事合作开发和实施共享资源，并促进 与其他 NIA/NIH 中心项目以及更广泛的科学领域共享科学资源 社区 4.为OAIC学员提供后勤和教育支持 5.加强OAIC职业发展计划并协调相关职业计划 开发由致力于衰老临床和转化研究的组织赞助 6. 开发并试点 OAIC 研究网络，以促进沟通、合作安排、 OAIC 站点之间以及 OAlC 与其他研究机构之间的合作项目 中心、NIA 或 NIH 资助的研究基础设施以及其他联邦或私人组织 促进老年医学培训和/或研究 7. 评估和改进所有协调中心职能和活动 作为更新的一部分，我们计划领导两项主要计划举措：1) 增强 OAIC Junior 教师发展通过： i) OAIC 教师发展活动与其他初级教师的协调 老龄化方面的教师发展计划，以及 ii) 利用互联网技术增加跨中心互动 和客座教授指导计划； 2) 增强 OAIC 计划发挥作用的潜力 作为一个研究网络，通过：i) 任命 OAIC 研究网络咨询委员会，ii) 开发基于网络的多机构研究基础设施，以及 iii) 进行一到两项研究 小型试点研究，以确定开发此类网络的可行性和成本估算。
