ABSTRACT – ADMINISTRATIVE CORE (CORE A) The Administrative Core (Core A) will be the central hub of the National Center for Translational Research in Infertility and Reproduction (NCTRI) at UCSF. Located in the UCSF Center for Reproductive Sciences (CRS) administrative office, in close proximity to our proposed NCTRI laboratories and members, Core A will provide administrative support for the investigators and technical staff engaged in our Center’s research projects and will provide the infrastructure to establish the Center’s Pilot Projects. It will maintain the NCTRI website and will organize and support the monthly Steering Committee meetings, Scientific Advisory Board meetings, and participate in the planning of the annual UCSF CRS retreat that serves as an opportunity to share research advances and identify and nurture new talent. Day-to-day operation of the Administrative Core will be under the direction of Center Director/PI Adrian Erlebacher, M.D., Ph.D., assisted by Core A Associate Director Linda Giudice, M.D., Ph.D. who have complementary and extensive experience in basic and translational investigation, with Dr. Giudice providing her expertise in administering large, complex, multi-disciplinary research programs. They will oversee the Core A Program Administrator and will liaise with the Administrative and Finance team of PI Erlebacher’s home department, Laboratory Medicine, that will assure financial and research compliance aspects of the award, ensuring expenditures are consistent with the intent of the award and the guidelines and regulations that govern the use of funds, as well as any institutional and federal requirements, so that Projects and Core goals are met.
