LBRN: ADMINISTRATIVE 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来源获得了主要资金，因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为中心机构，不一定为研究者机构。路易斯安那州BRIN（LBRN）的既定目标是建立一个网络，以促进全州的计算和生物医学研究。事实上，在这个LBRN项目的主持下，路易斯安那州已经成功地建立了跨学科和跨机构的研究，教育，培训和指导计划的基础。特别是，重点放在主要是本科校园，以吸引更有效地参与重要的生物医学研究。LBRN资金还为路易斯安那州建立计算和信息学网络和能力的全州计划提供了关键的杠杆作用。具体而言，这些努力包括确保必要的资金用于连接到全国性的高速光纤网络，国家Lambda铁路（NLR），雇用几名新教师，并承诺为路易斯安那州光网络计划（LONI）提供大量资金。该研究所的建议将继续支持、维护和加强在LBRN项目期间建立的网络资源，同时特别强调通过以生物信息学/生物计算以及分子和细胞生物学为重点的研究和开发专题领域，在参与机构内开发人力资源。该INBRE应用程序的主要目标是通过加强机构间的沟通和合作以及生物医学人力和基础设施资源的发展，提高路易斯安那州生物医学研究的竞争力。具体目标一：建立一个支持跨学科生物医学研究的研究网络。 具体目标二：支持由参与机构的研究人员领导并由经验丰富的生物医学科学家指导的具体研究项目。 具体目标三：通过支持指导研究项目，在每个参与的PUI校园产生生物医学研究人员的临界质量，并加强与旗舰机构的既定研究实验室和设施的沟通和合作。具体目标四：支持整个路易斯安那州的生物医学研究和教育，为该州目前不是INBRE成员的所有机构提供外联机会。 具体目标五：通过详细跟踪研究成果、人力资源开发以及参与机构内部和参与机构之间的合作精神，评价、评估和持续监测INBRE内部的进展。 行政核心负责组织和实施与本方案有关的活动和倡议。与指导委员会和外部咨询委员会协商，行政核心计划和支持分子细胞生物学核心，生物信息学生物计算核心和外展核心的活动。此外，行政核心还负责对方案进行评估。

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. The stated goal of Louisiana's BRIN (LBRN) has been to establish a network to facilitate computational and biomedical research throughout the State. Indeed, under the auspices of this LBRN Project, Louisiana has successfully established the foundation for interdisciplinary and inter-institutional research, education, training and mentoring programs. In particular, emphasis has been placed on predominantly undergraduate campuses to entice more effective participation in significant biomedical research. LBRN funding has also provided critical leveraging for state-wide initiatives to establish computation and informatics networks and capabilities in Louisiana. Specifically, these efforts have included securing the necessary funds for connecting to the nationally-based high speed optical network, National Lambda Rail (NLR), the hiring of several new faculty, and the commitment of significant funds for the Louisiana Optical Network Initiative (LONI). This INBRE proposal will provide for continued support, maintenance and enhancement of the networking resources established during the LBRN project, while placing special emphasis on the development of human resources within the participating institutions through thematic areas of research and development focusing on bioinformatics/ biocomputing and molecular and cell biology. The major objective of this INBRE application is to improve the competitiveness of biomedical research in Louisiana through enhancement of interinstitutional communication and collaboration and the development of biomedical manpower and infrastructure resources. The specific aims of this INBRE are: SPECIFIC AIMS Specific Aim I: Establish a research network supporting interdisciplinary biomedical research. Specific Aim II: Support specific research projects led by investigators from participating institutions and mentored by experienced biomedical scientists. Specific Aim III: Generate a critical mass of biomedical investigators at each participating PUI campus through support of mentored research projects, and enhanced communication and collaboration with established research laboratories and facilities at flagship institutions. Specific Aim IV: Support biomedical research and education throughout Louisiana by providing outreach opportunities to all institutions within the State that are not currently members of INBRE. Specific Aim V: Evaluate, assess and continuously monitor the progress within INBRE through detailed tracking of research accomplishments, the development of human resources, and the collaborative spirit at and among participating institutions. The administrative core is responsible for the organization and implementation of the activities and initiatives related to this program. In consultation with the Steering Committee and External Advisory Committee the Administrative Core plans and supports the activities of the Molecular Cell Biology Core, Bioinformatics Biocomputing Core, and the Outreach Cores. In addition the administrative core is responsible for the assessment of the program.
