Overview The administrative core will be responsible for overseeing the operation of the Center, including scheduling Steering Committee and Center all-hands meetings, managing training programs, and programming the lecture series. Working closely with the Steering Committee, the Administrative core will establish the Center's overall agenda, set timelines for deliverables, and monitor their progress. The Administrative Core will also lead promotional efforts and a revamped user outreach initiative. Leadership and staff The Administrative Core will be led by Mark Mintun. Dr. Mintun is the Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology (MIR) Division Director of Research Development and interim Director of Radiological Sciences which includes the NIL and Cyclotron Facility. He is also the Director of the CCIR and of the imaging component of the Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA). In 2006, he was the PI of a High End Instrumentation grant to purchase a Siemens Biograph PET/CT (which is in the CCIR). Dr. Mintun, with Dr. Marcus Raichle, developed methods to image and quantitate oxygen metabolism and receptor availability in vivo (coining the term Binding Potential), and conducted pioneering work in methods to map brain function. Patricia Aldea will serve as the NCCBI's user outreach specialist. This newly created position, which is described in detail below, is being established in direct response to user feedback that additional support is required for them to optimally use the Center's resource. A software engineer will provide algorithm, application, and visualization development. This position will be funded by the Department of Radiology, as described in the letter from Dr. Jost, allowing the engineer to contribute to the Center in ways that compliment the allowable costs described in the RFA.

概述 行政核心将负责监督中心的运作，包括安排指导委员会和中心全体会议，管理培训计划，并规划系列讲座。行政核心将与指导委员会密切合作，确定中心的总体议程，设定交付成果的时间表，并监测其进展情况。行政核心还将领导宣传工作和改进后的用户外联倡议。 领导层和员工 行政核心将由马克·明顿领导。明顿博士是Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology(MIR)研究发展部主任和放射科学部临时主任，其中包括NIL和回旋加速器设施。他也是CCIR和临床与转化科学奖(CTSA)成像部分的主任。2006年，他作为高端仪器公司的PI购买了一台西门子Bioggraph PET/CT(目前在CCIR中)。Mintun博士和Marcus Raichle博士一起开发了成像和量化体内氧代谢和受体可用性的方法(创造了结合这个术语 潜力)，并在绘制大脑功能图的方法方面进行了开创性的工作。 帕特里夏·阿尔迪亚将担任NCCBI的用户推广专家。这一新设立的职位将在下文详细说明，它的设立直接响应了用户的反馈，即他们需要更多的支助才能以最佳方式利用中心的资源。 一名软件工程师将提供算法、应用程序和可视化开发。这一职位将由放射科提供资金，如Jost博士的信中所述，允许工程师以与RFA中描述的允许成本相称的方式为中心做出贡献。
