COBRE: UNM: ADMINISTRATIVE/INFRASTRUCTURE CORE

该子项目是利用NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源的许多研究子项目之一。子项目和研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得主要资金，因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为中心，不一定是研究者所在机构。在第一个五年周期的最后一年（2005年1月2日至2006年1月31日），行政核心的重点是有效过渡到预计将于2006年1月2日开始的下一个竞争周期。我们已经为下一个周期招募了两名新的外部初级教员（W。Muller和S. Paul）。他们在今年春天上船。我们在内部竞争后选择了另外两名初级PI（H。Shi和X. Zhao）.核心预算的一部分被用于使这些项目执行人能够在2005年期间启动与COBRER有关的研究，以便他们能够有一个良好的开端，顺利过渡到下一个周期，届时他们将担任初级项目执行人。我们的核心也花了相当大的努力，在一个新的综合神经影像大楼，是专用于2005年6月2日建立一个功能齐全的研究中心，称为生物医学研究和综合神经影像（BRaIN成像）中心。截至本报告发布之时，所有核心设施（MRI、EPR、MEG/EEG、光学/电生理学、细胞和分子（C/M）以及外科）已从先前分离的实验室地点转移到新大楼，并且新老初级PI以及BRaIN高级成员均将其用于COBRE项目。我们还招聘了一名新的C/M核心副主任（R。Poddar）。正如分项目部分所述，我们成功地扩大了外部资助研究赠款的数量。我们已经开始计划在下一个资助周期内，用一个中心赠款来取代我们的COBRE赠款。 预算说明：行政核心的预算相当高（63%），因为与招聘四名新的初级教师和在过渡期间支持他们的研究有关的费用。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. In this final year of funding (2/1/05-1/31/06) of the first 5-year cycle, the administrative core has focused on making an effective transition to the next competing cycle expected to start on 2/1/06. We have recruited two new external junior faculty members for the next cycle (W. Muller and S. Paul). They have come on board during this spring. We selected two additional junior PIs after an internal competition (H. Shi and X. Zhao). A portion of the core budget was used to enable these PIs to initiate their COBRE-related research during year 05 so that they can have a head-start for smooth transition to the next cycle when they will serve as junior PIs. Our core has also spent a considerable amount of effort in establishing a fully functional research center called Biomedical Research and Integrative NeuroImaging (BRaIN Imaging) Center in a new comprehensive neuroimaging building that was dedicated on 6/2/05. As of the time of this report all the core facilities (MRI, EPR, MEG/EEG, Optical/ Electrophysiology, Cellular and Molecular (C/M), and Surgery) have moved from previously separated laboratory sites to the new building and they are all being used for COBRE projects by the new and old junior PIs as well senior members of the BRaIN. We have also recruited a new associate director of the C/M core (R. Poddar). As reported in the subproject sections, we have been successful in expanding the number of externally funded research grants. We have already started planning for a center grant that will replace our COBRE grant during the next funding cycle. Budgetary notes: The budget for the administrative core is rather high (63%) because of the costs associated with the recruitment of four new junior faculty members and with the support of their research during this transition period.
