Coordinating Unit for DiaComp

在过去的16年里，我们的团队成功地管理了NIDDK资助的协调单位（CU）。 糖尿病并发症联盟（DiaComp 2001年至今，前身为糖尿病并发症动物模型） 并发症联盟）。DiaComp提供了一个促进沟通和协作的环境 参与糖尿病并发症研究的研究者群体之间的联系。为了实现这一目标，DiaComp 赞助与复杂性有关的科学领域的年度会议， 影响并发症研究的领域，并支持一个网站，为糖尿病并发症 社区在上一个五年供资周期，协调股负责继续支持 DiaComp通过使用机会池（资金），管理/维护网站和表型数据 并在行政上组织由DiaComp赞助的会议和研讨会， 糖尿病并发症科学社区我们的实验室在过去的16年里一直是DiaComp的CU 年CU负责创建和维护行政，科学和信息学 组织和便利联营集团业务所需的基础设施。该提案的目的是提供 这个基础设施。我们将在当前DiaComp CU基础设施成功的基础上， DiaComp拥有强大而全面的面向服务的解决方案，可支持 财团

Over the last 16 years, our group has successfully managed the coordinating unit (CU) for the NIDDK funded Diabetic Complications Consortium (DiaComp 2001-present, formerly the Animal Models of Diabetic Complications Consortium). DiaComp provides an environment to foster communications and collaborations between investigator communities involved in diabetic complications research. Toward this goal, DiaComp sponsors annual meetings in complications-relevant scientific areas, solicits and funds pilot projects in high impact areas of complications research, and supports a website to serve the diabetic complications community. During the previous five year funding cycle, the CU was responsible for continuing support for DiaComp through the use of opportunity pools (funding), manage/maintain the website and phenotyping data and administratively organize the meetings and workshops sponsored by the DiaComp to engage the greater diabetic complications scientific community. Our laboratory has been the CU for DiaComp for the last 16 years. The CU is responsible for creating and maintaining the administrative, scientific and informatics infrastructure necessary to organize and facilitate consortial operations. The goal of this proposal is to provide that infrastructure. We will build upon the success of the current DiaComp CU infrastructure to provide DiaComp with a robust and comprehensive service oriented solution that supports the unique aspects of this consortium.
