为了成功实现Sami-trop研究目标，我们必须建立一个组织严密的行政核心，负责协调科学和行政工作。翻译科学依赖于不同背景的人。一个和谐的环境，允许群体对决策的投入，对于实现该计划的研究目标非常重要。核心将由国际和平协会的埃斯特·萨比诺博士和共同的国际和平组织安东尼奥·里贝罗博士以及一名项目协调员管理和配备人员。将设立两个主要委员会，对计划的管理进行内部和外部监督：执行委员会(每月召开电话会议，每年举行一次面对面会议)和外部咨询委员会(每年召开一次面对面会议)。此外，我们将举办年度务虚会，以突出进展和挑战/机遇，并帮助规划未来的研究。Fundacao Faculdade de Medicina(FFM)将作为负责合同和财务管理的机构。他们将使用一项专门针对研究的联邦法律，允许为大学服务的机构雇佣税收较少的人。因此，在目前的提案中，我们将遵循在NHLBI资助的REDS项目中成功使用的相同组织，即所有分包合同将直接由FFM执行，在任何列出的机构中都不会有赠款管理人员或活动。行政核心还将负责获得巴西所需的所有批准(IRB等)、储存样本以及组织会议和进度报告。Fundagao Faculdade de Medicina：将负责所有财务活动。圣保罗大学医学院将协调圣保罗的科学活动和培训计划。米纳斯吉拉斯大学医学院将协调米纳斯吉拉斯的科学活动。。

For the successful achievement of the SAMI-Trop research goals it is important that we establish a well-organized administrative core that is charged with orchestrating the scientific and administrative work. Translational science is dependent on people with different backgrounds. A harmonic environment that allows for group input on decisions is important for reaching the research objectives of the program. The Core will be managed and staffed by the PI Dr Ester Sabino and co-PI Dr Antonio Ribeiro and by a Project Coordinator. Two key committees will be established to provide internal and external oversight ofthe management of the program: the Executive Committee (with monthly conference calls and one in person meeting per year) and External Advisory Board (in person meeting once a year). In addition, we will hold an Annual Retreat to highlight progress and challenges/opportunities and help plan for future studies. Fundacao Faculdade de Medicina (FFM) will serve as the institution responsible for contract and financial administration. They will use a Federal law specific for research that allows institutions that serve Universities to hire people with less taxes. So, in the current proposal we will follow the same organization that has been successfully used in the NHLBI-funded REDS programs whereby all subcontracts will be executed directly by FFM and there will be no grant administrative staff or activities at any of the institutions listed. The administrative core will also be responsible for obtaining all approvals needed in Brazil (IRB, etc), for storage of the samples, and for organizing the meetings and progress reports. Fundagao Faculdade de Medicina: will be responsible for all financial activities. University of Sao Paulo Medical School will coordinate the scientific activities in Sao Paulo and the trainning program. University of Minas Gerais Medical School will coordinate the scientific activities in Minas Gerais. .
