This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The main goal of this Office is to actively facilitate and promote interdisciplinary research enterprises and curriculum development within UCC¿s academic community. The Office will consist of an Assistant Dean, an Administrative Assistant, an Editor, a Biostatistician and a Consultant. A two-phase plan is contemplated. Phase I will be dedicated to organize the Office by selecting, and training the staff. This phase will be implemented during the current RCMI cycle (2001-2003). Phase II (September 2004 through August 2009) will be devoted to establishing and implementing pre-and-post award procedures, assist researchers in the preparation of proposals and publications, establishing a strong profile for generation of external revenue and research grant funding, fostering research collaboration, as well as assisting in the implementation of the Scientific Human Resources Development unit. It is felt that this Office is essential in order to fulfill the institutional research goal as stated in the revised strategic plan.
