INBRE: KUMC: ADMINISTRATIVE CORE

本子项目是利用由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源的众多研究子项目之一。子项目和研究者（PI）可能已经从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金，因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。列出的机构是中心的，不一定是研究者的机构。行政核心的目标是为网络提供高效的服务，承担这个复杂的多校区倡议的大部分耗时的工作，以提高堪萨斯研究人员成功竞争NIH研究资助的能力。核心办公室位于KUMC的G015/G017楼，位于主任办公室（J. Hunt， 40%的努力）和项目协调员办公室（P. Terranova， 40%的努力）之间。行政官员，H.查普曼（100%的努力）负责核心的日常运行。她和她的助手（M. Miller,100%； A. Zhu, 50%）准备了财务报告，处理了研究支持拨款的申请，确定了委员会会议地点和议程，提供了准确的会议记录，制定了专题讨论会，并在INBRE参与者之间进行了日常沟通。K-INBRE行政核心负责监督远程研究网络。在堪萨斯州BRIN和K-INBRE，我们利用堪萨斯州远程医疗网络创建了这个最先进的网络，它促进了学习经验，并使研究人员能够获得当地无法获得但在全州范围内可用的专业知识。该网络通过计算机辅助的视听互动将K-INBRE的所有十个校区连接起来。行政核心还负责设立专题专题讨论会，使INBRE的调查人员和受训人员每年举行一次为期1.5天的专题讨论会。这是堪萨斯BRIN的一个很受欢迎的特点。2006年的研讨会在堪萨斯州的曼哈顿举行。核心目前正在组织2007年的研讨会，该研讨会将集中于细胞和发育生物学，并将在堪萨斯城举行。行政核心的第三个主要职能是监督为支持试点和过渡性赠款、核心设施、细胞和发育生物学教员招聘以及新研究者主要启动赠款的提案的竞争。除了K-INBRE的资源外，还有来自四个主要校区和堪萨斯技术企业公司（KTEC）的大量贡献。为21名优秀本科潜在研究人员（暑期学者）提供奖学金，设立试点和过渡性奖学金15项，星级实习生6项，支持核心支持和招聘计划11项，颁发学院学者奖7项。

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 goal of the Administrative Core is to provide efficient service to the network, assuming most of the time-consuming jobs of this complex, multi-campus initiative so as to improve the ability of Kansas researchers to compete successfully for NIH research grants. The offices of the Core are in G015/G017 Lied Building at KUMC between the offices of the Director (J. Hunt, 40% effort) and Program Coordinator (P. Terranova, 40% effort). The Administrative Officer, H. Chapman (100% effort) is in charge of day to day running of the core. She and her assistants (M. Miller,100%; A. Zhu, 50%) have prepared financial reports, processed applications for Research Support grants, established committee meetings sites and agendas, supplied accurate minutes, developed symposia and carried out daily communication among the INBRE participants. The K-INBRE Administrative Core oversees the TeleResearch Network. In the Kansas BRIN and K-INBRE we took advantage of the Kansas TeleMedicine Network to create this state-of-the art Network, which facilitates learning experiences and gives researchers access to expertise unavailable locally but available on a state-wide basis. The Network links all ten campuses of the K-INBRE through visual and audio computer-facilitated interactions. The Administrative Core is also responsible for establishing thematic symposia to bring INBRE investigators and trainees together in an annual 1.5 day symposium. This was a popular feature of the Kansas BRIN. The 2006 symposium took place in Manhattan, Kansas. The Core is currently assembling the 2007 symposium, which will focus on cell and developmental biology and will be held in Kansas City. A third major function of the Administrative Core is oversight of competitions for proposals for support of pilot and bridging grants, core facilities, recruitments of faculty in cell and developmental biology, and new investigator Major Starter Grants. Added to K-INBRE resources are substantial contributions from each of the four major campuses and from the Kansas Technology Enterprise Corporation (KTEC). We awarded stipends for 21 outstanding prospective undergraduate researchers (Summer Scholars), made 15 pilot and bridging grant awards, 6 star trainee awards, supported 11 core support and recruitment packages, and awarded 7 Faculty Scholar awards.
