MARSHALL U COBRE: ADMINISTRATIVE COREOIR=

本子项目是利用由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源的众多研究子项目之一。子项目和研究者（PI）可能已经从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金，因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。列出的机构是中心的，不一定是研究者的机构。根据COBRE指导方针的要求，将建立一个行政核心，并由PI Niles博士指导。该核心将负责COBRE的所有财务方面。这将包括跟踪单个项目/核心预算，下订单，批准付款发票，安排旅行等。它还将协调外部咨询委员会一年两次的访问/会议，并将这些会议的纪要送交国家人权中心的工作人员。核心将处理COBRE人员每月会议的后勤和记录记录。此外，我们建议建立肿瘤细胞生物学系列研讨会，邀请全国知名肿瘤研究人员参加。该项目将由导师之一Gary Rankin博士协调，他也负责监督医学院的访问学者研讨会项目。最后，我们建议建立一个试点资助计划，以鼓励其他非COBRE教师发起符合本COBRE科学主题的癌症生物学研究。这一机制将增加参与癌症研究的研究人员的临界质量，并确保在NCRR资金结束后COBRE中心继续取得成功。

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. As required by COBRE guidelines, an administrative core will be established and directed by the PI, Dr. Niles. This core will be responsible for all financial aspects of the COBRE. This will include tracking individual project/core budgets, placing orders, approving invoices for payment, scheduling travel, etc. It will also coordinate the biannual visits/meetings of the External Advisory Committee and communicate minutes of these meetings to NCRR staff. The core will handle the logistics and record minutes of the monthly meetings of COBRE personnel. In addition, we propose to establish a seminar series in Tumor Cell Biology, featuring nationally prominent oncology researchers. This program will be coordinated by Dr. Gary Rankin, one of the mentors, who also oversees the Visiting Scholars Seminar Program in the School of Medicine. Lastly, we propose to establish a pilot grant program in order to encourage other non- COBRE faculty members to initiate research in cancer biology that fits into the scientific theme of this COBRE. This mechanism should increase the critical mass of investigators involved in cancer research and ensure continued success of the COBRE center once NCRR funding has ended.e=n¿?
