Administrative Core

行政核心将提供四项主要服务：总体 PPG 的专业指导、PPG 相关活动的沟通和协调、计划项目会议的组织以及为组成项目研究人员和核心领导者提供生物统计支持。因此，行政核心将提供强有力的集中科学和行政领导，以促进本计划项目的三个项目和三个核心之间的协同互动。 首席研究员 Richard Peek 博士主要负责该计划和行政核心的各个方面。他将得到项目负责人、核心董事、科学顾问委员会成员和行政人员的协助。核心的行政人员将监督所有年度预算、监控支出并提供财务活动月度报表。行政核心生物统计学家 Tatsuki Koyama 博士将向所有计划项目参与者提供生物统计分析和解释。此外，所有与计划相关的会议都将通过该核心安排。其中包括项目和核心领导者的每月会议，以评估生产力、分配核心使用情况和计划资源，并讨论未来的方向。每两个月一次的科学会议还将让研究人员展示当前数据、发现问题并讨论解决方案。计划在项目期间每隔一年举行一次的科学顾问委员会会议的安排以及待审查材料的生成将通过行政核心进行处理。行政核心将每隔一年为计划项目参与者和内部和外部顾问组织和协调一次务虚会。最后，该核心将准备、生成和汇总年度进度报告所需的材料，并将确保及时完成与计划项目活动有关的所有其他 NIH 和机构报告要求。

The Administrative Core will provide four major services: Professional Direction for the aggregate PPG, Communication and Coordination of PPG-related activities, Organization of Program Project Meetings and Biostatistical Support for Component Project Investigators and Core Leaders. The Administrative Core will therefore provide strong centralized scientific and administrative leadership to facilitate synergistic interactions between the three Projects and three Cores of this Program Project. Dr. Richard Peek, Principal Investigator, has primary responsibility for all aspects of the Program and the Administrative Core. He will be aided by the Project Leaders, Core Directors, members of the Scientific Advisory Boards, and administrative personnel. The administrative staff of the Core will oversee all annual budgets, monitor expenses, and provide monthly statements of financial activities. Biostatistical analysis and interpretation will be provided to all Program Project participants by Dr. Tatsuki Koyama, the Administrative Core's Biostatistician. In addition, all Program-related meetings will be scheduled through this Core. These include monthly meetings of Project and Core leaders to evaluate productivity, allocate core usage and Program resources, and discuss future directions. A bi-monthly scientific meeting will also allow investigators to present current data, identify problems, and discuss solutions. Arrangements for the Scientific Advisory Board meetings, planned for every other year of the Project period, as well as generation of materials to be reviewed will be handled through the Administrative Core. The Administrative Core will organize and coordinate 1 retreat every other year for Program Project participants and the Internal and External advisors. Finally, this Core will prepare, generate, and assemble materials required for the annual progress reports and will ensure that all additional NIH and institutional reporting requirements concerning the Program Project's activities are completed in a timely manner.
