Administrative Core

摘要：行政核心（核心A） 听力损失（ARHL）影响大多数65岁以上的人。老年人 通常在各种降级环境中难以理解语音 条件和非典型谈话者的讲话，但助听器只提供有限的好处， 了以下条件然而，对听觉和认知训练范式的重新关注 改善老年人日常交流的巨大希望。总体目标 该计划项目补助金的目的是汇集9名才华横溢、富有成效的研究人员 他们使用一系列的方法和模型来研究听觉和认知的影响， 训练中枢听觉神经系统的神经可塑性。行政核心 为整个计划提供领导和行政支持，具体目标有三个： 1)在项目之间提供科学监督和凝聚力; 2）促进合作 在三个项目的调查人员之间，包括传播联合出版物; 3)公平地管理资源。行政运作畅顺， 参与沟通将使研究人员能够致力于科学研究， 他们各自项目的目标和共同的，跨领域的想法的计划 整个项目。

ABSTRACT: ADMINISTRATIVE CORE (CORE A) Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) affects the majority of people over 65 years. Older people typically experience difficulty understanding speech in various degraded environmental conditions and the speech of atypical talkers, but hearing aids provide only limited benefit in these conditions. However, a renewed focus on auditory and cognitive training paradigms holds great promise for improving everyday communication by senior citizens. The overall objective of this Program Project Grant is to bring together 9 highly talented and productive investigators who use a range of methodologies and models to study the impact of auditory and cognitive training on neural plasticity in the central auditory nervous system. The Administrative Core provides leadership and administrative support for the entire program with three specific aims: 1) Provide scientific oversight and cohesion across the projects; 2) Facilitate collaboration among investigators across the three projects, including dissemination of joint publications; and 3) Manage resources in an equitable manner. Smooth, efficient administrative operation and engaged communication will enable investigators to devote their efforts to the scientific objectives of their respective projects and the common, cross-cutting ideas of the program project as a whole.
