Administrative Core

项目摘要 UTRGV基因组研究多样性中心的行政核心旨在提供 中心所需的行政支持，以提高机构基因组学研究能力和 UTRGV的基因组研究环境。核心将有助于促进合作和独立 通过利用机构和国家资源，在大学的不同单位开展研究项目， 并扩大研究能力，开展尖端基因组学科学，重点是研究 经历健康差距的人群。行政核心将提供领导、协调、 行政监督和财务管理，以中心通过实施全面 管理计划。它还将实施一项评估计划，以评估中心的活动并确定其影响 1）加强UTRGV的机构基础设施和研究环境，以促进 基因组研究; 2）提高研究人员的生产力，由同行评审的出版物确定 和基因组发现;和3）增加UTRGV的整体成功申请和获得校外 科研经费这些全面评估将有助于不断完善和改进 中心计划，以提高研究者和学员对中心的满意度。互补 持续改进质量的方法是征求咨询委员会和指导委员会的意见， 以马克思该中心将设有内部咨询委员会和外部咨询委员会， 我将对中心的进展情况进行定期审查，并就方法提出建议 中心的活动。为了最大限度地发挥中心的影响，行政核心将促进 参与国家基因组学联盟，包括NHGRI多样性中心联盟。中心 研究人员已经参与了TOPMed，T2D Genes，ENIGMA，WGSPD和AMP T2D Genes。的 行政核心将使用各种方法与科学界和当地社区进行沟通 关于通过中心提供的机会和中心取得的进展，包括年度 基因组学研究研讨会和年度德克萨斯州墨西哥研究合作座谈会。的 行政核心将负责执行《加强多样化观点计划》。通过 其各种活动，行政核心将努力确保UTRGV多样性中心的成功， 基因组研究。

PROJECT SUMMARY The Administrative Core of the UTRGV Diversity Center for Genome Research is designed to provide the administrative support required for the Center to enhance institutional genomics research capacity and the genomics research environment at UTRGV. The Core will help to facilitate collaborative and independent research projects across the different units of the university by leveraging institutional and national resources, and to expand research capabilities to conduct cutting-edge genomics science, with an emphasis on studies in populations experiencing health disparities. The Administrative Core will provide leadership, coordination, administrative oversight, and financial management to the Center through implementation of a comprehensive management plan. It also will implement an evaluation plan to assess Center activities and determine the impact of the Center on 1) enhancing institutional infrastructure and the research environment at UTRGV to facilitate genomic research; 2) increasing the productivity of investigators as determined by peer reviewed publications and genomic discoveries; and 3) increasing UTRGV’s overall success in applying for and obtaining extramural research funding. These comprehensive assessments will facilitate continuous refinement and improvement of Center programs in order to enhance investigator and trainee satisfaction with the Center. A complementary approach to continuous quality improvement will be obtaining advice from Advisory Committees and the Steering Committee. The Center will have both an Internal Advisory Committee and an External Advisory Committee that will conduct regular reviews of progress in the Center and make recommendations regarding the approaches and activities of the Center. In order to maximize the impact of the Center, the Administrative Core will facilitate participation in national genomics consortia, including the consortium of NHGRI Diversity Centers. Center investigators already participate in TOPMed, T2D Genes, ENIGMA, WGSPD, and AMP T2D Genes. The Administrative Core will use a variety of approaches to communicate with the scientific and local communities about opportunities available through the Center and progress made by the Center, including an annual Genomics Research Symposium and an annual Texas Mexico Research Collaboration Colloquium. The Administrative Core will be responsible for implementing the Plan for Enhancing Diverse Perspectives. Through its varied activities, the Administrative Core will work to ensure the success of the UTRGV Diversity Center for Genome Research.
