Administrative Core

行政核心将领导和支持慢性病认知和情感中心的总体目标：推动慢性病认知和情感症状的科学研究。它将通过发展可持续的跨学科生物行为研究来实现这一目标，该研究围绕集中的资源和基础设施以及互补和协同的研究活动进行组织，并使可行性研究能够发展为新的研究计划。行政核心(AC)的目标是扩大、促进和加强在慢性病认知和情感症状领域的合作、跨学科研究。这一目标将通过监督和管理中心的战略计划、有效管理集中资源、领导促进研究和协作互动的结构化机制以及专家指导和指导来实现，以增强先导研究人员和其他中心成员的研究潜力和计划。行政核心的目标是： 1.制定和管理中心的战略方向和计划 2.为发展和维持与科学有关的研究提供基础设施 中心的主题 2A。扩大和加强学校现有的与科学相一致的研究基地 中心的主题 2B。使试点研究人员能够完成他们的项目并制定研究计划 3.促进传播与中心科学主题有关的研究成果 咨询委员会将管理中心的整体活动，包括生物行为和方法核心(BMC)的活动，执行和管理中心的评估和可持续发展计划，并监督项目资金的使用，包括试点/可行性研究的资金。在咨询委员会内，执行委员会和外部咨询委员会将为中心的方向提供指导和咨询，并帮助确保中心的战略目标、核心的目标和试点研究的目标得以实现。咨询委员会将确保主任、BMC主任、试点研究项目绩效指标和中心成员之间的协调互动；它还将确保协调和有效地使用中心的资源和设施、机构行政人员和中心的其他工作人员。审计委员会将管理核心的共享秘书服务及其财政监督职能。AC将开发、监控和更新中心网站，由Nell Hodgson Woodruff护理学院(NHWSN)的一名专门的专家工作人员管理。这一核心的关键作用将是为中心成员提供指导和支持，以扩大他们的跨学科合作，传播研究结果，并获得额外的外部资金。组织结构。该中心将纳入卫生与公众服务部的组织结构。中心/行政核心主任将直接向院长报告。BMC将向行政核心主管负责。所有核心成员将向中心主任和执行委员会负责。图中的虚线表明，执行委员会和咨询委员会都可能影响私营部门管理委员会的运作。

The Administrative Core will function to lead and provide support for the overall goal of the Center for Cognition and Affect in Chronic Illness: to advance the science of cognitive and affective symptoms in chronic illness. It will accomplish this goal through the development of sustainable interdisciplinary biobehavioral research that IS organized around centralized resources and infrastructure and complementary and synergistic research activities and that enables feasibility research to develop into new programs of research. The goal of the Administrative Core (AC) is to expand, facilitate and strengthen collaborative, interdisciplinary research in the area of cognitive and affective symptoms in chronic illness. This goal will be accomplished through oversight and management of the Center's strategic plan, efficient stewardship of centralized resources, leadership of structured mechanisms to promote research and collaborative interaction, and expert mentorship and guidance to enhance the research potential and programs of pilot study researchers and other Center members. The aims of the Administrative Core are to: 1. Establish and manage the strategic direction and plan of the Center 2. Provide infrastructure for the development and maintenance of research related to the science theme of the Center 2a. Expand and strengthen the existing research base in the school aligned with the science theme of the Center 2b. Enable pilot study researchers to complete their projects and develop a program of research 3. Promote dissemination of research findings related to the science theme of the Center The AC will manage the overall activities of the Center, including those of the Biobehavior and Methods Core (BMC), execute and manage the Center's evaluation and sustainability plans, and oversee the utilization of project funds, including funds for the pilot/feasibility studies. Within the AC, an executive committee and external advisory board will provide guidance and counsel for the direction of the Center and help ensure that the strategic objectives of the Center, the aims of the cores, and the aims of the pilot studies are met. The AC will serve to assure coordinated interactions among the Director, the BMC Directors, the pilot Research Project PIs, and the Center Members; it will likewise assure coordinated and efficient use of the Center's resources and facilities, institutional administrative personnel, and other Center staff. The AC will administer the core's shared secretarial services and its fiscal oversight function. The AC will develop, monitor, and update a Center website to be managed by a dedicated expert staff member of the Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing (NHWSN). A key role of this Core will be to provide guidance and support to Center Members in expanding their interdisciplinary collaborations, disseminating findings, and obtaining additional external funding. Organizational Structure. The Center will be integrated within the organizational structure of the NHWSN. The Center/Administrative Core Director will report directly to the Dean. The BMC will be responsible to the Administrative Core Director. All core members will be responsible to the Center directors and Executive Committee. The dashed lines in the figure indicate that both the Executive Committee and Advisory Committees may influence operations of the BMC.
