# Core 1: Administrative Core

> **NIH NIH P01** · UNIVERSITY OF ALABAMA AT BIRMINGHAM · 2020 · $114,230

## Abstract

The goal of the Administrative Core will be to coordinate the scientific, operational, and financial
operations of the entire Program Project. Dr. Craig Elmets will lead the Administrative Core and
will be assisted by the leaders of the individual projects and by the core directors. The Internal
and External Advisory Committees will offer additional advice to the Administrative Core on the
scientific direction of each of the Projects and the Scientific Cores. The Administrative Core will
provide the necessary leadership, oversight, direction, and administrative support services
necessary for the timely and ethical conduction of research related to this Program Project. In
addition, the Administrative Core will reduce the time Project and Core leaders and other
personnel need to spend on administrative details, and allow them to concentrate on the scientific
goals of the program. The Core also will facilitate interaction and communication between
components of the Program Project. The Administrative Core will accomplish this with the
following responsibilities: 1. To plan, coordinate and implement the administrative activities of the
Projects and Cores, and to maintain sound fiscal management of the Projects and Cores. 2. To
provide oversight to the core facilities by assuring high quality and adequate utilization of the
services provided, and to evaluate resource allocation to all projects and cores. 3. To promote
productive interactions between the Projects and Cores and to foster communication that will
enhance the exchange of ideas between Project and Core scientists. 4. To coordinate evaluation
by the Internal and External Advisory Committees. 5. To interface with officials at UAB, the
National Cancer Institute, the University of Wisconsin subcontract and other regulatory agencies
to ensure that there is Institutional and NIH Compliance. To coordinate regular meetings of the
Data Safety Monitoring Board and provide their reports to the IRB, the NCI and other parties to
whom these reports should be communicated. The Administrative Core will provide regular
reports to the NCI on the efficacy and toxicity of the reagents employed in the clinical biomarker
trial. 6. To coordinate biostatistical and bioinformatics activities of the core to ensure that
investigators have ready access to statistical consultation and support.
