Administration Component

管理核心支持GM/CA@APS活动以运营和持续改进资源 用于在高级光子源挑战生物医学问题的大分子结晶学 在阿贡国家实验室。行政核心由GM/CA集团领导人Robert Fischetti领导 (联系PI)，他主管7名全球机制/会计准则工作人员。科学主任珍妮特·史密斯博士(加州大学 密歇根，PI)使GM/CA了解结构生物学的当前需求和挑战，并前往 阿贡每月两次。Craig Ogata博士(运行科负责人)领导用户计划和 管理三名员工。谢尔盖·斯捷潘诺夫博士(控制科负责人)领导计算和网络 努力并监督三名员工。费舍蒂和史密斯做出了关于手术的重大决定 改进GM/CA，并与绪方和Stepanov协商，为GM/CA设定长期目标。 运行成功的用户程序的管理结构包括接收、跟踪和 对提前计划和快速访问光束时间的请求进行优先排序，以计划光束时间，以提供 为每个用户组提供一个专家主机，以接收来自用户的反馈，以收集 关于波束时间使用的指标，以跟踪出版物和存放的结构数据方面的用户生产力 在PDB，并组织光束线维护和改进。克里斯汀·阿伦斯坚持认为 用户数据库、束流时间使用情况、用户出版物、PDB证词和用户资金 为所有GM/CA活动提供专家行政支持。迈克尔·贝克尔博士和绪方 和Smith，监督GM/CA波束时间申请的优先顺序，并组织重大 用户结果。阿伦斯、贝克尔和绪方一起安排光束时间。史蒂夫·科克伦组织例行公事 光束线维护和用户样品的护理。Fischetti和Smith向GM/CA外部寻求建议 咨询委员会，负责满足全球机制/会计准则的报告要求。

The Administration Core supports GM/CA@APS activities to operate and continually improve a resource for macromolecular crystallography of challenging biomedical problems at the Advanced Photon Source at Argonne National Laboratory. The Administrative Core is led by GM/CA Group Leader Robert Fischetti (contact PI) who supervises seven of the GM/CA staff. Scientific Director Dr. Janet Smith (University of Michigan, PI) keeps GM/CA abreast of current needs and challenges in structural biology and travels to Argonne twice per month. Dr. Craig Ogata (Operations Section Lead) leads the user program and supervises three staff. Dr. Sergey Stepanov (Controls Section Lead) leads the computing and networking effort and supervises three staff. Fischetti and Smith make major decisions about the operation and improvement of GM/CA and, in consultation with Ogata and Stepanov, set long-term goals for GM/CA. The administrative structure to operate a successful user program includes systems to receive, track and prioritize requests for advance-scheduled and rapid-access beam time, to schedule beam time, to provide an expert host for each user group, to receive feedback from users following their beam time, to gather metrics on beam time use, to track user productivity in terms of publications and structural data deposited in the PDB, and to organize beamline maintenance and improvement. Kristin Ahrens maintains databases of users, beam time use, user publications, PDB depositions and user funding, and she provides expert administrative support for all GM/CA activities. Dr. Michael Becker, together with Ogata and Smith, oversees GM/CA prioritization of beam time applications, and organizes publicity of significant user results. Ahrens, Becker and Ogata together schedule beam time. Steve Corcoran organizes routine beamline maintenance and care of user samples. Fischetti and Smith seek advice from a GM/CA External Advisory Board and are responsible for meeting GM/CA reporting requirements.
