Administrative and Professional Development Core

行政和专业发展核心(L.Liw，核心总监) 行政和专业发展核心由本公司的PD/PI Lucy Liw博士领导 MaineHealth的项目。她将继续领导这个成功的项目，该项目通过 稳定和专注的管理和指导，强有力的机构支持，有针对性的招聘 外部调查人员，以及改进最先进的科学核心设施。在这个项目的第一阶段， 最初的四个初级项目负责人都获得了NIH R01/R37的独立资助，我们已经招募了 另外三个初级调查员项目导致了我们的项目。我们的核心设施继续处于高位 我们的Cobre团队和外部调查人员的需求，我们已经对仪器进行了改进 并根据用户需求开发新技术。在第二阶段，我们将增加一个额外的初级 向我们的两名新入职的外部新人进行调查项目。此次续订计划支持三名青少年 研究人员的项目集中在生热脂肪细胞和系统新陈代谢上，肠道-骨轴 减肥手术，以及孕妇夜班工作对孕前糖尿病和慢性糖尿病的影响 糖尿病风险。这一科布雷二期计划的目标是促进和支持科学生产力和 合作，加强和协调我们的研究基础设施，寻找和扩大科学专门知识， 并积极监督和监督职业发展计划。为了实现这些目标，这 行政和专业发展核心将提供组织框架和领导，以 促进和鼓励成功。我们将继续支持三个非常成功的科学核心设施 在生理学、组织病理学和显微镜、蛋白质组学和脂质组学领域。我们的行政部门 基础设施依赖于强大的指导网络，项目负责人至少聘请两名指导人员 季度会议和反馈。此外，每月定期召开Cobre团队会议，每季度召开临床会议 合作伙伴会议和两次咨询委员会年度会议完善了我们的正式研究进展 框架。这个行政核心的目的是为研究提供行政和组织 支持实现整个计划的目标，这些目标包括： 1)提供领导以发展强大的中心基础设施，包括行政、财务和 科学管理，支持代谢领域合作研究和资源的增长 健康和疾病， 2)支持Cobre调查人员和校友的职业发展， 3)维护高质量的共享科学资源，以及 4)在实现这些目标的同时，建立一个以以下原则为指导的多样化研究社区 包容性和公平性。

Administrative and Professional Development Core (L. Liaw, Core Director) The Administrative and Professional Development Core is led by Lucy Liaw PhD, the PD/PI of this COBRE program at MaineHealth. She will continue leadership of this successful program, which has flourished via steady and dedicated management and mentorship, robust institutional support, targeted recruitment of external investigators, and improvement of state-of-the-art scientific core facilities. In Phase I of this program, all of the four initial junior project leads received NIH R01/R37 independent funding, and we have recruited three additional junior investigator project leads to our program. Our core facilities continue to be in high demand from our COBRE group and external investigators, and we have made instrumentation improvements and developed new technologies based on user needs. In Phase II, we will be adding an additional junior investigator project to our two newly initiated external recruits. This renewal proposes support for three junior investigator projects focused on thermogenic adipocytes and systemic metabolism, the gut-bone axis following bariatric surgery, and the impact of night shift work of pregnant women on pre-gestational diabetes and chronic diabetes risk. The goals of this Phase II COBRE program are to foster and support scientific productivity and collaboration, enhance and coordinate our research infrastructure, seek out and expand scientific expertise, and actively oversee and monitor a professional development program. To accomplish these goals, this Administrative and Professional Development Core will provide the organizational framework and leadership to facilitate and encourage success. We are continuing support of three highly successful scientific core facilities in the areas of Physiology, Histopathology and Microscopy, and Proteomics and Lipidomics. Our administrative infrastructure relies on a robust mentoring network, with project leads engaging at least two mentors for quarterly meetings and feedback. In addition, regular monthly COBRE team meetings, quarterly Clinical Partners meetings, and twice annual Advisory Committee meetings round out our formal research progress framework. The aims of this Administrative Core are to provide the research administrative and organizational support to meet the goals of the overall program, which are: 1) Provide leadership to evolve a robust Center infrastructure including administrative, fiscal and scientific management to support growth of collaborative research and resources in metabolic health and disease, 2) Support career advancement for COBRE investigators and alumni, 3) Maintain high quality shared scientific resources, and 4) Accomplish these goals while building a diverse research community that is guided by principles of inclusion and equity.
