Management and Administrative Core

摘要 管理和行政核心(核心A)将全面领导和协调 罗伊巴尔中心，并利用该中心的资源，最大限度地发挥试点项目活动对健康的影响 和医疗保健政策。该核心将为早期研究项目(主要是第一阶段)提供支持 这将促进对高影响行为干预措施的严格、低成本、随机评估，以改善 老年人的健康结果。我们将以Pi Amy Finkelstein和现有的 麻省理工学院北方Abdul Latif Jameel贫困行动实验室的工作人员、基础设施和附属学者网络 美国(J-PAL北美)实现了几个目标。 首先，这个核心将在调查人员、工作人员和 咨询委员会。定期沟通将确保合作，促进知识共享，并避免 重复劳动。这将包括每年一次的面对面会议，以及定期的征集机会 就研究的设计和实施提供建议和反馈。第二，这个核心将提供后勤， 技术、行政管理和支持，以确保遵守所有财务、报告和 该奖项的监管要求。第三，该核心将传播研究成果和经验教训。 面向不同的观众。这一核心将提高对麻省理工学院罗伊巴尔中心的认识，并扩大传播 针对不同受众的研究结果。最后，这一核心将促进持续的网络和伙伴关系 发展以支持发展干预措施为重点的研究人员网络的发展 以及对改善健康的高影响、与政策相关的行为干预进行低成本评估 人口老龄化的后果。 这一核心将确保中心的活动符合支持早至中期、低成本和低成本的总体目标 成本、严格评估高影响力、政策相关的行为干预措施，以改善老年人的健康 成年人。

ABSTRACT The Management and Administrative Core (Core A) will provide overall leadership and coordination of the Roybal Center and leverage the Center’s resources to maximize the impact of pilot project activities on health and health care policy. This Core will provide support to early-stage research projects (predominantly Stage I) that will catalyze rigorous, low-cost, randomized evaluations of high-impact behavioral interventions to improve the health outcomes of older adults. We will build upon the expertise of PI Amy Finkelstein and the existing staff, infrastructure and network of affiliated academics in MIT’s Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab North America (J-PAL North America) to achieve several aims. First, this core will provide leadership, communication, and coordination among investigators, staff, and the Advisory Committee. Regular communication will ensure collaboration, facilitate knowledge-sharing, and avoid duplication of efforts. This will include annual in-person meetings, as well as regular opportunities to solicit advice and feedback regarding design and implementation of studies. Second, this core will provide logistical, technical, and administrative management and support to ensure compliance with all financial, reporting, and regulatory requirements of the award. Third, this core will disseminate research findings and lessons learned for diverse audiences. This core will raise awareness of the MIT Roybal Center and amplify the dissemination of study results for diverse audiences. Finally, this core will facilitate continued network and partnership development to support the growth of the network of researchers focusing on the development of interventions and low-cost evaluations of high-impact, policy-relevant behavioral interventions to improve the health outcomes of the aging population. This Core will ensure that Center activities adhere to the overall goal of supporting early to mid-stage, low- cost, rigorous evaluations of high-impact, policy-relevant behavioral interventions to improve the health of older adults.
