Administration

在上一个预算期间，癌症中心对其行政、科学和教育目标和倡议进行了广泛的重组。在涉及癌症研究企业所有利益相关者的全面和包容性战略规划过程的指导下，实施了全面的指令，重新调整了多学科合作的科学项目，重新组织了共享资源，以获得最佳影响和渗透，启动了一系列教育和指导计划，并在基础，转化和面向患者的癌症研究。咨询过程的关键战略指令之一是建立一个专门的行政基础设施，以指导下一个CCSG预算期间癌症中心的预期扩张，与此同时，新的Wistar研究大楼也将投入使用。这导致了新的癌症中心领导团队的成立，咨询和咨询场所的重组，新的咨询委员会的任命，并成立了一个新的癌症中心外部咨询委员会。作为战略规划过程的一部分，这个重新配置的综合管理基础设施为癌症中心提供了一个精简的、机会驱动的决策过程。这有助于在上一个预算期间实现广泛的成功举措，使癌症中心在NCI和癌症相关资金的增长、合作出版物的增加和基础和转化癌症研究的开创性科学发现方面处于急剧上升的轨道上。这一积极的发展轨迹将在下一个预算期内继续下去，因为新配置的癌症中心行政基础设施将领导即将到来的教师和设施扩张，扩大教育和指导活动，包括向未被充分代表的少数民族提供服务，并支持基础和转化癌症研究的多学科倡议

During the last budget period, the Cancer Center has undergone an expansive reorganization of its administrative, scientific and educational goals and initiatives. Guided by a comprehensive and inclusive strategic planning process that engaged all ofthe stakeholders ofthe cancer research enterprise, comprehensive directives were implemented that realigned scientific Programs for multidisciplinary collaboration, reorganized Shared Resources for optimal impact and penetration, launched a portfolio of educational and mentoring initiatives and created inter-institutional partnerships along the continuum of basic, translational and patient-oriented cancer research. One of the key strategic directives of the consultative process was the creation of a dedicated administrative infrastructure ideally suited to guide the anticipated expansion ofthe Cancer Center during the next CCSG budget period, coinciding with the opening of the new Wistar Research Tower This resulted in the creation of a new Cancer Center leadership team, the reorganization of consultative and advisory venues, the appointment of new advisory committees, and the creation of a new Cancer Center-dedicated External Advisory Board. As emerged from the strategic planning process, this newly reconfigured, integrated administrative infrastructure provided a lean and opportunity-driven decision-making process for the Cancer Center. This was instrumental to enable a broad range of successful initiatives during the last budget period, which positioned the Cancer Center on a steep ascending trajectory with respect to growth of NCI and cancer-related funding, increase in collaborative publications and seminal scientific discoveries in basic and translational cancer research. This positive trajectory will continue in the next budget period, as the newly reconfigured Cancer Center administrative infrastructure will lead the upcoming faculty and facility expansion, expand education and mentoring activities, including outreach to underrepresented minorities, and support multidisciplinary initiatives in basic and translational cancer research
