Administrative Core

行政核心的主要目标是提供必要的行政支助，通过减轻项目负责人的行政职责，确保三个项目的综合、协调和有效的科学运作。行政核心的另一个重要职能是协调赠款的咨询服务。具体来说，核心目标是：1)为各个项目提供全面的科学和计划领导(例如，战略规划、监测和评估)，服务于这笔赠款的总体科学主题。2)监督和协调三个项目的每月活动，以促进可靠的信息交流、协作互动、项目研究工作的协同和凝聚力。3)准备和协调提交给NIH的所有进度报告。4)备稿、投稿的准备和协调。5)预算预测，以协助计划主任监督赠款。6)安排专家组每两年举行一次的正式会议和其他非正式会议的所有方面，包括举行电话会议。7)项目负责人出席小组会议的差旅安排。8)编写和分发执行委员会会议记录。9)协调所有顾问活动，包括遴选和邀请顾问，以及旅行安排。10)促进和实施电子邮件和电话咨询活动。11)协助加州大学圣迭戈分校和斯克里普斯大学技术发展办公室的发明披露和互动。

The primary objective of the Administrative Core is to provide the required administrative support to ensure the integrated, coherent and effective scientific operations of the three projects by alleviating Project Leaders from administrative duties. Another important function of the Administrative Core will be to coordinate consulting services to the grant. Specifically, the Core Objectives are: 1) To provide overall scientific and programmatic leadership (e.g., strategic planning, monitoring and evaluation) to the individual Projects in service of the overall scientific theme of this grant. 2) To oversee and coordinate month-to-month activities of the three Projects in order to facilitate reliable exchange of information, collaborative interactions, synergy and cohesiveness of the Projects' research efforts. 3) Preparation and co-ordination of all progress reports to NIH. 4) Preparation and co-ordination of manuscript preparation and submission. 5) Budget projections to assist the Program Director in overseeing the grant. 6) Organization of all aspects of the formal biannual and other informal meetings of the Group, including teleconferencing. 7) Travel arrangements for the Project Leaders to attend the Group meetings. 8) Preparation and distribution of minutes of the Executive Committee meetings. 9) Co-ordination of all consultant activities, including selection and invitation of consultants, and travel arrangements. 10) Facilitate and implement email and telephone consulting activities. 11) Assist with Invention Disclosures and interactions with the offices of Technology Development of UCSD and Scripps.
