项目摘要

Summary The primary goal of the Administrative Core is to ensure productivity of the Program by promoting coherence and synergy as well as intellectual and resource sharing, among the PIs and their lab members in order to ensure that the outcome and value of the research performed in each Project is greater than the sum of its parts. This Core will facilitate and coordinate the following activities that are essential for the success of the entire Program: research planning and scientific review, monitoring progress relative the proposed Program goals, data exchange, reagent and animal/tissue sharing, travel to annual Program meetings and between PI labs, and reporting and fiscal oversight. Thus, Core A will provide the structure and organization needed to maximize interactions and collaboration among the PIs and lab members in each of the three Research Projects, Core B and Core C, which will, in turn, facilitate accomplishment of Program goals. Based on past experience, we believe that the key to effective collaboration is direct personal interactions. Three of the five labs are in the Austin area. Dr. Manley’s group is at the University of Georgia. Drs. Hale and Sempowski are at Duke. As Drs. Manley and Richie know from working together for nearly 20 years, travel between Athens and Austin is relatively inexpensive with multiple direct flights available on a daily basis. Similarly, traveling from Raleigh/Durham to Austin is straightforward. Personnel travel between labs facilitates achieving scientific objectives, and is in some cases necessary for the proposed experiments. Lab member exchange is the most effective mechanism for transfer of techniques between labs. All three Research Projects will exchange lab members to achieve specific scientific goals. Travel to annual Program lab summits and scientific meetings provides for efficient communication of results to each other and to the scientific community, and affords the ability to learn new approaches and gain information to shape future work. Also, this is an efficient and effective way for all lab members to meet and discuss data together. While face-to-face meetings are an invaluable method of communication, in a geographically distributed collaboration they are of necessity limited in scope. We are already engaged in and will continue web-based conferencing that permits multi-site visual and audio communication, and facilitates analyzing data and images collaboratively. General administrative functions will provide vital additional levels of cohesion and facilitate program productivity. While most administrative assistant related support will continue to be supplied by the home institutions of each PI, Core A will perform any such services requiring coordination between the Research Projects and Cores.

概括行政核心的主要目标是通过促进一致性来确保计划的生产力 PI 及其实验室成员之间的协同作用以及知识和资源共享，以确保每个项目中进行的研究的成果和价值大于其各个部分的总和。核心将促进和协调对整个计划的成功至关重要的以下活动：研究规划和科学审查，监测与拟议计划目标、数据相关的进展交流、试剂和动物/组织共享、参加年度计划会议以及 PI 实验室之间的旅行，以及因此，核心 A 将提供最大化所需的结构和组织。三个研究项目核心 B 中的每一个项目的 PI 和实验室成员之间的互动和协作核心 C，反过来将促进计划目标的实现。根据过去的经验，我们认为有效协作的关键是直接的个人互动。五个实验室中的三个位于奥斯汀地区，曼利博士的团队位于佐治亚大学。曼利博士和里奇博士在杜克大学工作了近 20 年，他们知道，森波夫斯基经常旅行。雅典和奥斯汀之间的票价相对便宜，每天有多个直飞航班。同样，从罗利/达勒姆到奥斯汀的实验室之间的人员旅行也很方便。实现科学目标，并且在某些情况下对于实验室成员提出的实验是必要的。交流是实验室之间技术转让的最有效机制。将交换实验室成员以实现特定的科学目标。科学会议提供了相互之间以及向科学界有效交流结果的机会，并提供学习新方法和获取信息来塑造未来工作的能力。此外，这是一种高效的方法。面对面会议是所有实验室成员一起见面和讨论数据的有效方式。沟通的宝贵方法，在地理分布的协作中，它们必然受到限制我们已经开始并将继续开展允许多站点视觉和会议的网络会议。音频通信，并有助于协作分析数据和图像。一般行政职能将提供重要的额外级别的凝聚力和便利计划虽然大多数行政助理相关支持将继续由家庭提供。每个 PI 的机构，核心 A 将执行需要研究机构之间协调的任何此类服务项目和核心。
