The main goals of the Administrative Core are to provide overall leadership for the CCCR, manage the financial aspects of the CCCR, provide communication and outreach to musculoskeletal researchers and evaluate the success of our efforts. The Administrative Core leadership, Jeffrey G. Jarvik, MD, MPH and Janna Friedly, MD, MPH, both have national and international reputations as outstanding scientific leaders. They will focus on furthering the overall goal of the Center, to develop and provide scientifically rigorous, state-of-the-art methods and resources for conducting musculoskeletal clinical research, thereby expanding the community of investigators performing high-quality musculoskeletal clinical research and thus increasing the amount of available useful data for researchers, clinicians, patients and policy makers. The Administrative Core supports the individual Cores (Methodologic and Resource) in achieving their aims. It also sets as a high priority attracting new and established investigators within and outside UW to join the musculoskeletal research community contributing to and utilizing the CCCR Cores. The Administrative Core coordinates and integrates all the CCCRs activities. Given the complexity of multiple cores, data sets, investigators and projects, strong central coordination is critical to success. The Administrative Core administers financial aspects of the CCCR including cost recovery for use of CCCR Core resources to increase the sustainability of the CCCR. The Administrative Core works closely with the External Advisory Committee (EAC) to evaluate the success of the CCCR’s activities and consider new directions and goals. The CCCR organizes biannual EAC meetings to provide feedback and guidance. Publications are an important metric for the CCCR, and the Administrative Core will oversee the Publications Committee, following already established authorship guidelines. The Administrative Core oversees efforts to communicate the available resources and progress of the CCCR to the NIAMS research community. Finally, the Administrative Core oversees the Visiting Scientist Program and coordinates this program.
