UCSF NORC Administrative Core

行政核心：摘要 UCSF强大的营养，肥胖和代谢研究基地由来自22个国家的58名研究人员组成。 部门或有组织的研究单位和四所学校在7个UCSF校区，以及加州大学伯克利分校。 UCSF NORC行政核心的主要目的是确保UCSF的所有组成部分- NORC正在协调一致地工作，以最大限度地使这批关键的调查人员受益。这是通过 一个行政基础设施，提供机制，以确保跨部门， 多学科研究计划和共享研究设施，教育/研讨会计划的凝聚力， 以及协调促进对新兴肥胖和营养研究领域试点研究的支持。 行政核心向所有人提供领导、基础设施、行政支助、咨询和监督 UCSF-NORC行动和UCSF-NORC社区的成员。行政核心 为日常运作提供中央支持，并不断发展NORC的长期愿景 和战略。它还为来自世界各地的机构的肥胖和营养研究人员提供了接口。 北方加州，其他NIH NORC，NIDDK和非专业社区。一个高效的操作 行政核心促进理解的目标，并开发新的方法来治疗，预防和治疗， 最终治愈，与营养，肥胖和肥胖有关的健康问题的根本原因和并发症， 新陈代谢. 为了实现这些目标，UCSF NORC行政核心将继续： ·促进和监测NORC研究主题领域内和之间的进展。 ·监督UCSF-NORC共享的营养、肥胖和代谢方面的特殊需求资源 研究，以提高NORC内部的人类和基础研究的效率。 ·支持试点和可行性计划，以促进新的可持续发展，研究计划的发展 以肥胖、营养和新陈代谢为主题。 ·支持一个丰富的计划，既提供研究信息，又促进内部合作， 肥胖和营养相关的研究领域。 ·为NORC调查人员提供有效指导的组织结构。 通过其方案和服务，行政核心将汇集一个社区， 来自相关学科的研究人员，以加强和扩大营养，肥胖和 在加州大学旧金山分校和其他地方进行代谢研究

Administrative Core: Summary The strong nutrition, obesity and metabolism research base at UCSF is composed of 58 investigators from 22 departments or organized research units and four schools across 7 UCSF Campuses, as well as UC Berkeley. The primary purpose of the UCSF NORC Administrative Core is to ensure that all components of the UCSF- NORC are working in unison in order to maximally benefit this critical set of investigators. This is achieved by an administrative infrastructure that provides mechanisms to ensure the integration of cross-departmental, multidisciplinary research programs and shared research facilities, cohesion in educational/seminar programs, and the coordinated facilitation of support for pilot research in emerging obesity and nutrition research areas. The Administrative Core provides leadership, infrastructure, administrative support, advice and oversight to all UCSF-NORC operations and to the members of the UCSF-NORC community. The Administrative Core supplies the central support for day-to-day operation and continuously develops the NORC's long-term visions and strategies. It also provides the interface to obesity and nutrition researchers from institutions across Northern California, to other NIH NORCs, to the NIDDK, and to the lay community. An efficiently operating Administrative Core facilitates the goal of understanding, and developing new methods to treat, prevent and ultimately cure, the underlying causes and complications of health concerns related to nutrition, obesity and metabolism. To achieve those aims, the UCSF NORC Administrative Core will continue to: · Facilitate and monitor progress within, and among, the NORC research thematic areas. · Provide oversight of UCSF-NORC shared resources of special need for nutrition, obesity and metabolism studies to enhance the efficiency of human and basic research within the NORC. · Support a Pilot & Feasibility Program to cultivate the development of new sustainable, research programs centered on obesity, nutritional and metabolism themes. · Support an Enrichment Program that both provides research information and fosters collaborations within and among obesity- and nutrition-related research disciplines. · Provide the organizational structure for effective mentoring of NORC investigators. Through its programs and services, the Administrative Core will thus bring together a community of investigators from interrelated disciplines to enhance and extend the effectiveness of nutrition, obesity and metabolism research at UCSF and beyond.!
