## Abstract

Admin Core Project Summary
We propose to establish the Arizona Cancer and Evolution Center (ACE). Arizona State University will lead the 
Arizona Cancer and Evolution Center effort. Drs. Maley and Shibata, co-principal investigators, will direct the 
Center in collaboration with NCI program staff. ACE integrates a team of modelers, evolutionary biologists and 
cancer biologists with a successful track-record of collaborations. The objective of the Arizona Cancer and 
Evolution Center Administrative Core is to provide the necessary infrastructure for the overall organization and 
effective management of the Center to achieve the objectives of the CSBC and the NCI, as well as realize the 
scientific goals of the Center. The ACE Administrative Core will accomplish four Specific Aims during this 
funding period: Aim 1 Create and maintain a knowledgeable, skilled, and interdisciplinary leadership team that 
is connected to the research and the wider network; Aim 2 Design and implement a clear and effective 
communication plan across the Center; Aim 3 Identify and foster pilot projects; Aim 4 Solicit, coordinate, and 
respond to external advice for the scientific direction and opportunities for ACE. IMPACT: The Administrative 
Core will enable the Arizona Cancer and Evolution Center to transform current understanding and 
management of cancer by developing the theory, models, and measures of cancer that will be applicable and 
clinically relevant across cancers and species.
