Carolina Center on Population Aging and Health: Administrative Core

核心A摘要 卡罗莱纳人口老龄化中心的行政和研究支持核心， 健康（CCPAH）的总体目标是促进创造性研究和高质量数据 收集，减少对教师的行政和技术负担， 研究和管理中心的活动，使CCPAH的目标得以实现。 该核心将组织与中心主题相关的研讨会和讲习班，确定教师 新加入的管理员，其工作与我们的主题逻辑上相关，简化行政流程 这样教师就可以专注于科学，并管理中心的日常运作。 该核心的成功，与中心整体的成功相结合，将导致 几个结果。最重要的是，CCPAH教师开展的数据收集项目将 更好地反映与老龄化相关的设计和内容的最新水平， 更好地相互结合，并与其他调查相结合，这些调查是老龄问题的主要资源。 这一结果对于我们加强CCPAH老龄化研究的雄心至关重要， 因为这些项目将把主要的新数据集放在公共领域， 如果他们的设计对CCPAH和世界各地的老龄化学者更有用， 采用了先进的方法，并支持与其他数据进行比较。芯会 利用卡罗莱纳人口中心的现有结构，CCPAH的行政总部， 工作良好，但也要开展新的活动，以确保CCPAH完成工作 在未来五年，CCPAH PI，核心领导人， 项目经理和CPC经验丰富的专业人员，CCPAH将利用，所有这些 他们坚定地致力于我们制定的目标，将为我们提供强有力的领导， CCPAH在未来几年。

ABSTRACT Core A The Administrative and Research Support Core of the Carolina Center for Population Aging and Health (CCPAH) has the overarching goals of fostering creative research and high-quality data collection, reducing the administrative and technical burdens on faculty of conducting that research, and managing the Center's activities so that the goals of the CCPAH are realized. This core will organize seminars and workshops related to the Center's themes, identify faculty new to UNC or whose work logically relates to our themes, streamline administrative processes so that faculty can focus on science, and manage the day to day operations of the center. The success of this Core, in combination with the success of the Center overall, will result in several outcomes. Most importantly, data collection projects undertaken by CCPAH faculty will better reflect the state of the art with respect to aging-related design and content and will be better integrated with one another and with other surveys that are major resources for aging. This outcome is central to our ambition of enhancing research on aging at CCPAH and elsewhere because the projects will place major new data sets in the public domain, which will be more useful to scholars of aging both within CCPAH and worldwide if their design incorporates cutting-edge approaches and supports comparisons to other data. The Core will leverage existing structures at the Carolina Population Center, CCPAH's administrative home, that work well, but also develop new activities to make sure that CCPAH accomplishes the work it has proposed over the coming five years. The combination of the CCPAH PI, Core Leaders, project manager, and CPC's experienced professional staff on which CCPAH will draw, all of whom are deeply committed to the goals we have developed, will provide strong leadership for CCPAH in the coming years.
