PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT: ADMINISTRATIVE CORE The Minnesota HHEAR Targeted Analysis Laboratory’s Administrative Core (Admin Core) is vital to the success of the Lab. The overall goal of the Admin Core will be the successful oversight and coordination of the overall Minnesota HHEAR Targeted Analysis Laboratory (MN HHEAR) activities. Dr. Lisa Peterson will serve as the Core’s leader and will oversee the operation of MN HHEAR with the assistance of Ms. Karin Vevang and Mr. Robert Carlson. Dr. Peterson will chair the Executive Committee, which includes the leaders of the Lab’s Targeted Analysis Resource and the Developmental Core in addition to Drs. Huset and Gross. This committee will meet monthly to review and discuss Lab progress and financial updates as well as help overcome any problems or barriers, ensuring that all of the Lab’s analytical requests are completed in a timely and high quality manner within budgetary constraints. In addition, there will biweekly communications with all MN HHEAR’s co-investigators to update the group on the progress of current studies.
