> **NIH NIH U19** · MASSACHUSETTS GENERAL HOSPITAL · 2020 · $8,222,303

## Abstract

ABSTRACT (ADMINISTRATIVE CORE)
The DISCOVERY Administrative Core will ensure the scientific and programmatic success of this uniquely
complex and large-scale project by serving as the operational and organizational infrastructure for the
DISCOVERY study and network. Serving as the management and communication hub of the network, the
Administrative Core will ensure network cores, teams, subcommittees and sites work in synchronicity to execute
the study and achieve the overall aims. The Administrative Core will provide outstanding scientific leadership
and state-of-the-art administrative infrastructure to the DISCOVERY Network. Specific strengths of the proposed
DISCOVERY Administrative Core include (1) the full range of leadership experience of the MGH team
investigators and clinical research management professionals in complex collaborative projects including multi-
center stroke trial expertise; (2) scientific leadership in all aspects of the proposed study; (3) institutional support
and access to the existing NIH-funded resources including expertise in large national network coordination
(MarkVCID, NeuroNEXT) and clinical data management systems (NeuroBank); (4) the established track record
of collaboration between the DISCOVERY Network leadership and the other Core Leads as well as the key
personnel and investigators in the proposed study. If selected, the DISCOVERY Administrative Core will be
ideally positioned to scientifically and administratively lead the DISCOVERY Network in the successful execution
of this important and highly complex post stroke cognitive impairment and dementia study.
