Administrative and Scientific Core

项目摘要/摘要--行政核心 为了成功地实现Sami-trop研究目标，我们必须建立一个良好的- 有组织的行政核心，负责协调科学和行政工作。 翻译科学依赖于不同背景的人。和谐的环境，允许 因为群体对决策的投入对于实现项目的研究目标很重要。 核心将由PD Ester Sabino博士和共同负责人Antonio Ribeiro博士和Dr Lea Campos de Oliveira(项目协调员)。将成立两个主要委员会，以提供内部和 对方案管理的外部监督：执行委员会(每月召开电话会议 每年一次面对面会议)和外部咨询委员会(一次面对面会议和基于网络的会议 每年举行一次会议)。 Fundação Faculdade de Medicina(FFM)将作为负责合同和财务的机构 行政管理。他们将使用一项专门针对研究的联邦法律，允许为大学服务的机构 雇佣税收较少的人。因此，在目前的提案中，我们将遵循与 在前面的Sami-trop程序中成功使用，其中所有分包合同将直接由 FFM，在所列任何机构都不会有赠款、行政人员或活动。这个 行政核心还将负责获得巴西所需的所有批准(IRB等)，以储存 样本，以及组织会议和进度报告。

PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT – ADMINISTRATIVE CORE For the successful achievement of the SaMi-Trop research goals it is important that we establish a well- organized administrative core that is charged with orchestrating the scientific and administrative work. Translational science is dependent on people with different backgrounds. A harmonic environment that allows for group input on decisions is important for reaching the research objectives of the program. The Core will be managed and staffed by the PD Dr Ester Sabino and co-Lead Dr Antonio Ribeiro and by Dr Lea Campos de Oliveira(project coordinator). Two key committees will be established to provide internal and external oversight of the management of the program: the Executive Committee (with monthly conference calls and one in person meeting per year) and External Advisory Board (one in person meeting and web based meeting once a year). Fundação Faculdade de Medicina (FFM) will serve as the institution responsible for contract and financial administration. They will use a Federal law specific for research that allows institutions that serve Universities to hire people with less taxes. So, in the current proposal we will follow the same organization that has been successfully used in the previous SaMi-Trop program whereby all subcontracts will be executed directly by FFM and there will be no grant administrative staff or activities at any of the institutions listed. The administrative core will also be responsible for obtaining all approvals needed in Brazil (IRB, etc), for storage of the samples, and for organizing the meetings and progress reports.
