## Abstract

Abstract (Administrative Core)
The Administrative Core will oversee coordination and integration of all U19 Program functions; guide and
facilitate interactions between the Project and Core leaders, Principal Investigators, and research staff;
provide rigorous and regular fiscal oversight of the research projects and cores; ensure that the U19
TeamBCP maximizes the utilization of existing and established resources; and facilitate data, technology and
information sharing and collaboration with key BRAIN Initiative stakeholders and the greater neuroscience
research community. The core will be lead by our Team Directors, Rui Costa and Tom Jessell, and have an
Internal Advisory Committee, a Data Science management sub-committee, an External Advisory Committee
and a dedicated staff Program Manager. The core will a) provide overall coordination and support for the
TeamBCP U19 research activities, b) foster growth of the Motor Control research within and beyond our
research team, c) oversee and ensure resource dissemination and outreach, and d) fiscal and administrative
management of cores and research projects. The Internal Advisory Committee will meet monthly to discuss
all administrative issues and to provide scientific direction for the program. Drs. Costa and Jessell will co-
chair these meetings. The needs, usage and effectiveness of the Cores will be assessed at these meetings
and any obstacles to progress will be identified. Each Core, including the Administrative Core, will present a
status update on any outstanding scientific, administrative or budgetary issues that require immediate
attention. These regular meetings will ensure that the program can address problems in a timely manner.
They will also serve to make decisions about the resources, priorities, efforts and data access for the whole
program, and to resolve potential conflicts. The Internal Data Science Subcommittee will meet at least once
a year, with more frequent ad hoc meetings with individual advisory members to review Data Science Core
specific issues and report back to the IAC.
