## Abstract

This Research Program Project, titled Role of reservoir composition and T cell immunity in HIV
rebound kinetics (RETIRE-HIV), will use samples from ongoing human therapeutic vaccination trials
and synergistic non-human primate studies to ask how host immunity can alter rebound kinetics. The
Program has a strong multidisciplinary and international character, established by a team of expert PIs who are
longstanding collaborators and have access to unique cohorts of rebounding individuals. Such diversity,
including geographic diversity, requires a strong administrative structure to promote synergy between the
programmatic elements by facilitating regular, structured communication. This Administrative Core will provide
overall organizational structure for the Program Project, perform administrative functions, interface with
NIH/NIAID staff, foster cooperation between projects and cores, encourage criticism and advice from its
scientists, promote fiscal responsibility, and assure the continued excellence of the Project and its ability to
address the Specific Aims.
The Administrative Core will be based at UC Davis and directed by the Program Project's co-overall PIs, Drs.
Hartigan-O'Connor and Barry. These investigators have long worked together as Core Scientists at the
California National Primate Research Center (CNPRC). Dr. Barry was Director of the CNPRC from 2014-2015
and is now Director of the adjacent Center for Comparative Medicine. Thus, he has abundant experience in
management of large collaborative projects such as this. The Core's organization is supplemented by
administrators, specialists, the External Scientific Advisory Board, and an Internal Steering Committee.
The specific aims of the Administrative Core are:
1. Provide an organizational and programmatic structure to promote scientific excellence.
2. Provide organizational and financial oversight and future planning, establish decision-making processes, set
priorities, and resolve disputes
3. Ensure efficient data, information, and resource sharing.
