UAB视觉研究中心核心-行政核心 项目/摘要摘要 UAB NEI P30管理核心在监督以下机构的整体活动方面发挥着重要作用 科学核心，并确保资金得到适当利用，支持最高质量的科学 不同的视觉学科。这一核心的另一个主要作用，与阿拉伯联合酋长国的努力相结合 大学跨学科研究中心(UWIRC)的视觉科学研究中心(VSRC)，是为了 促进和积极促进新的协作，并对新的和较少的提供支持和指导 建立了研究人员，以发展和加强他们的研究计划。这两位核心总监/私人助理，Dr。 Samuels和联席董事/联席主任皮特勒博士得到了NEI R01的支持，并保持着活跃和富有成效的实验室。 他们在不同视觉研究领域的专业知识和牢固的工作关系使他们成为 领导P30奖助金的优秀团队。他们将从一个咨询委员会得到至少两年一次的意见。 由具有NEI P30和/或NEI R01资助历史的内部和外部专家组成。他们会寻求 UAB P30参与者和其他人在所有UAB视觉科学家每月举行的公开论坛上提供的其他信息 在UAB研讨会上进行视觉研究。此外，核心提供的资源和服务的质量 通过有重点的调查、市政厅式的会议以及与教职员工的互动来衡量 会议和务虚会。为拥有十年以上行政工作经验的一名工作人员提供持续支持 需要经验来促进日常操作，如订购用品、维护合规性 和预算，在需要时协调维修，并协助文件准备和记录保存。到期 对于强有力的机构支助，赠款管理/秘书/业务干事支助费用低于 每年总预算的5%。行政核心在维护和维护 协调P30活动，保持堆芯平稳有效运行。

UAB Center Core for Vision Research - Administrative Core Project/Summary Abstract The UAB NEI P30 Administrative Core performs an essential function in overseeing the overall activity of the scientific Cores, and making sure that funds are appropriately utilized to support the highest quality science in a diverse range of vision disciplines. Another major role of this Core, in conjunction with the efforts of the UAB University Wide Interdiciplinary Research Center’s (UWIRC) Vision Science Research Center (VSRC), is to promote and actively foster new collaboration, and to provide support and guidance to new and less established investigators to develop and strengthen their research programs. Both the Core Director/PI, Dr. Samuels and Co-Director/Co-PI, Dr. Pittler are NEI R01 supported and maintain active and productive labs. Their combined expertise in diverse areas of vision research, and strong working relationship, makes them an excellent team to lead the P30 grant. They will receive at least bi-annual input from an advisory committee comprised of internal and external experts with a history of NEI P30 and/or NEI R01 funding. They will seek additional input from UAB P30 participants and others in a monthly open forum of all UAB vision scientists that precedes Vision Research at UAB Seminars. Additionally, the quality of Core- provided resources and services is measured by focused surveys, town-hall style meetings, and through interaction with faculty at faculty meetings and retreats. Continued support for one staff personnel with more than a decade of administrative experience is requested to facilitate day-to-day operations such as ordering supplies, maintaining compliance and budgets, coordinating repairs if needed and assisting with document preparation and record keeping. Due to strong institutional support, grant management/secretarial/business officer support costs represent less than 5% of the total budget each year. The Administrative Core has an essential role in maintaining and coordinating P30 activities and keeping the Cores running smoothly and effectively.
