摘要/摘要 核心A-管理、研究协调和规划 方案项目赠款机制的实质性利益是由一个行政核心实现的 与整个研究小组积极接触，既协调正在进行的 个人研究项目以及推动和促进 总体规划。行政核心的活动包括组织和财务管理， 研究支持、外展、实质性整合、传播、规划和研究开发。一 核心的作用是提供集中的行政、通信和研究支持。第二个是 在更大的社区中激发对健康相关研究的兴趣。核心是两个方面的综合粘合剂 构成计划项目和协调、推广、招聘的基石的子项目 以及更广泛地推进卫生经济学中的NBER研究。它寻求参与计划活动 从研究生到博士后再到新兴领导者，各个层次的许多最好的学者都有经验 给杰出的学者。第三个作用是促进协作，包括组织工作组会议， 将人们聚集在一起的研讨会和会议。促进核心研究之间的互动 团队和卫生保健从业者是行政核心的一个重要的额外目标。第四项活动 其核心是对多个项目的结果进行实质性整合。计划项目的主要主题 研究贯穿了大部分或所有组成部分的项目，创造了跨项目学习的协同效应。 每个子项目的发现的重要性，以及它们如何结合在一起，需要智力上的关注。 而额外的研究重点则是明确的活动和目标的核心。第五项责任是研究 传播。这主要是通过在同行评议的期刊上发表文章，但也通过一个很好的- 建立了工作文件系列和非技术性通讯。核心特别有助于在 准备NBER时事通讯中的非技术性摘要。六、以核心促活力 研究规划和开发。虽然这项申请提出了未来五年的研究议程， 它是一个活着的计划，随着时间的推移而发展，以回应我们在进步中所学到的东西，回应新的机会 以及我们研究所处的健康、医疗保健和健康政策环境的变化 指挥。核心关注每个研究计划的持续相关性，并设法找出差距 这可能会通过新的研究开发来填补。

SUMMARY/ABSTRACT Core A – Administration, Research Coordination, and Planning The substantial benefits of the program project grant mechanism are made possible by an administrative core that is actively engaged with the research team as a whole, both in coordinating the ongoing conduct of the individual research projects and in advancing and promoting the underlying themes and objectives of the overall program. The activities of the administrative core encompass organizational and financial management, research support, outreach, substantive integration, dissemination, planning, and research development. One role of the core is to provide centralized administrative, communications, and research support. A second is to stimulate interest in health-related research in the larger community. The core is both the integrative glue for the subprojects that make up the program project and the cornerstone for coordinating, promoting, recruiting and advancing NBER research in health economics more generally. It seeks to engage in program activities many of the best scholars at all levels of experience, from graduate students to post-docs to emerging leaders to prominent scholars. A third role is facilitating collaboration, including organizing working group meetings, workshops, and conferences that bring people together. Promoting interactions between the core research team and health care practitioners is an important additional aim of the administrative core. A fourth activity of the core is the substantive integration of findings from multiple projects. The major themes of program project research weave through most or all of the component projects, creating synergies of cross-project learning. The importance of the findings from each subproject, and how they fit together, requires intellectual attention and additional research focus that is an explicit activity and goal of the core. A fifth responsibility is research dissemination. This is done primarily through articles in peer-reviewed journals, but also through a well- established working paper series, and non-technical newsletters. The core is particularly instrumental in preparing the non-technical summaries that appear in NBER newsletters. Sixth, the core promotes dynamic research planning and development. While this application proposes a research agenda for the next five years, it is a living plan, evolving over time in response to what we learn as we progress, to new opportunities that arise, and to changes in the health, health care and health policy environment in which our research is conducted. The core pays attention to the ongoing relevance of each research plan, and seeks to identify gaps that might be filled through new research development.
